The HT (HyperTerminal) .HT file extension is a session file format associated with the Microsoft Windows HyperTerminal communication program. This application is used to connect to systems and other devices over TCP/IP or serial connections, allowing users to communicate with the host machine. The HT files are primarily used to store terminal session settings, but these can also include the text of the conversation and a file transfer log depending on the configuration of HyperTerminal.
Description of contents
The HT files are plain text documents that contain code which communicates information about the user, such as the username and connection settings including port number and baud rate. Moreover, in some cases, the files also contain call records covering both basic call data (duration, date and time) as well as user’s specific notes for the call and certain text from the host machine. HT files may also include the contents of sent or received files, as well as keyboard macros.
Similar File Extensions
HT files are often confused with other types of terminal emulation files such as .HTB, .NVT, and TEL. Generally speaking, any type of file with the ‘HT’ extension is specifically associated with HyperTerminal sessions.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .HT) 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 .HT 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 .HT 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 .HT 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 .HT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .HT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .HT 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 .HT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .HT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .HT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
