You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .dtd. Files with the file extension .dtd can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .dtd files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .dtd file?
Certain developer files used by applications implemented with support for encoding text content using XML-based specifications are called document type definition files, and these developer files are stored in the DTD format. These DTD files are appended with the .dtd extension and are particularly used by the SyncRO Soft oxygen XML Editor software developed for Linux systems, and another one for Microsoft Windows-based systems is the Progress Stylus Studio application. The MacroMates TextMate program can be used on the other hand by Mac users for integrating support into their systems for the DTD file format. The content of a DTD file usually includes specification settings, digital objects, layout elements, text attributes and plain text configurations associated to certain documents encoded and saved in HTML, XML, XHTML and SGML formats. Some Web browsers reference the data stored in these DTD files when users are viewing HTML or XHTML pages with associated DTD files. Verifying if the representation of a document by another file is valid can be done using the content stored in these DTD files.
how to open a .dtd file?
Launch a .dtd file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .dtd file will open it.

what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .dtd. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
