| Full Name | Developer | Category |

| Windows Mail Live Email Format | Microsoft | Misc Files |
The EML file extension is used for both Windows and internet message formats. It is a saved copy of an email message, which is used as a backup in some cases. It is also known as the Windows Live Mail Email File and this type of file is used as an email archive format by many modern email clients like Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express.
Formatting
This type of file contains the full message body, from the original header through to the attachments. This message body can contain plain text or formatted text, header information including sender and recipient addresses, as well as metainformation like delivery date and accepted language. are the files that are commonly used when transferring email from one client to another.
Protection/Security
Many applications support the ability to protect EML files with passwords. This can help control access to private messages or confidential information that needs to be kept secure. In addition, encryption methods can be employed to protect the content from unauthorized access. Interoperability is also improved by the fact that emails stored in this format can be exported easily and imported into another e-mail program with minimal effort.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case ._EML) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the ._EML extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the ._EML file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the ._EML extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the ._EML extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a ._EML file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the ._EML file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the ._EML file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the ._EML file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the ._EML file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
