How to open file with .BSD extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .BSD file? Do you want to convert a .BSD file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .BSD

Full Name Developer Category
BSDL Format IEEE Data Files
.BSD

BSD BSDL file extension is one of the most commonly used files in software development. It is a proprietary file type developed by McAfee, Inc, (formerly Network Associates) for their products, such as their antivirus software. BSDL files are usually used to store the respective programs’ preferences and settings. These files can also be used to customize the programs’ user interface, or can be used for customizing installation settings.

Technical Details

BSDL files are formatted using a structured data format and contain a series of entries which define various settings for a particular program. Each entry may contain different types of data such as strings, numbers, and boolean values. The BSDL file extension uses a format similar to Windows INI or XML files. These files differ from regular text files since they are encoded in binary format and can only be read by the associated program or app. Similar file extensions include ASDL, NSDL, SXDL.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .BSD) 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 .BSD 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 .BSD 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 .BSD 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 .BSD extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .BSD file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .BSD 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 .BSD file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .BSD file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .BSD file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .BSD file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
