File extension .CLASS

File description

Java class file can only be performed on the Java Virtual Machine. The file extension is represented by a .class. There are ten basic segments to the Java Class File configuration.

There is no basic history for the Java Class File. It was invented from ideas that were already in place. The invention was in 2006. Because of predetermined choices made during the file format development, the number of constants in the constant pool table is not actually the same as the original constant pool count. The Java Class File is used by many programmers in today’s society. Although it can only be used on a Java machine, there is much intelligence performed on the software.

Remember!
The .CLASS file extension can correspond to several not related file formats. If there is more than one file format with the .CLASS extension, you will probably find most of them at this website. Remember that you need to download a program to support a particular file type. So first look through the entire contents of the website to select a program to support just the file you have.

Other possible reasons why your .CLASS file does not want to open

In addition to the problem described above, i.e. the lack of the appropriate application to support the .CLASS file, there may be several reasons that cause problems with opening and operation of the data format:

1. Incorrect version of the installed application

A quite common problem is the lack of application in the appropriate version. Even if you have an application, with the help of which you should open the .CLASS file, you may have a problem with it because of its version. Perhaps in previous versions the application has not yet supported the .CLASS file, so download the update and check again.

2. Incorrect .CLASS file association with the program

If you have already installed the appropriate application, and it is the correct version, the file may not open correctly, because the operating system does not have information that this program supports the file. So you need to "show" which program the computer should use. To do this:

  • Right-click the .CLASS file
  • Go to the "Open with" - then "Choose default program ..."
  • Locate the appropriate application
  • Click "OK"

3. The file is corrupt

It also happens that the file you want to open is corrupt and therefore there is no such possibility. In this situation, you should find its different version, or ask a person from whom you got, to send it again.
