You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .flow. Files with the file extension .flow can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .flow files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .flow file?
The .flow extension is used by files created by Expression SketchFlow. These are usually project files because most of the time, the software is used by website creators to create website projects requested by their clients. The Expression Sketchflow program is a popular tool to design web applications as well as other solutions that the clients may need for their website to be effective. In other words, this software is used to ensure that the project delivered to the clients is flawless and functional. For instance, with the use of the software, website designers can test applications they applied for the project and check how functional it is before they deliver it to the clients. When creating the project through this software, the project is saved into the .flow format. Editing the project is also possible because the .flow files created with the Expression Sketchflow software can be converted to .doc files, meaning users can really ensure the quality and the performance of the project and the applications incorporated, before it is deemed completed.
how to open a .flow file?
Launch a .flow 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 .flow file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .flow files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .flow file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a .flow file will open the correct application.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .flow files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.
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, .flow. 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.
