The HID (Sony Ericsson Remote Settings File) file extension is a binary, protected file type used by Sony Ericsson to store settings for the remote control software. It is located in the root directory of a Sony Ericsson receiver and contains command data which are used to control the functions of a remote device. The HID file format is not human-readable and can only be accessed through the Sony Ericsson Remote Control Application or program.

Technical Details
The HID file extension is the standard register for remote control operations between devices supporting infrared communication. It is composed of texts, numbers, and specific codes stored in hexadecimal value statements. When receiving HID commands from the remote-control application, the receiving device interprets the data following the defined protocol and returns the resulting function. The HID file is usually embedded into other system files such as installation packages.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .HID) 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 .HID 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 .HID 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 .HID 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 .HID extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .HID file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .HID 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 .HID file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .HID file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .HID file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
