You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .hif. Files with the file extension .hif can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .hif files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .hif file?
The HIF file extension was developed by Intuit and HIF files are called Quicken Online Files because they are files that are used for the storage of financial data in the Quicken personal and business finance software, particularly its earlier versions. These files are categorized as data files and they save mostly financial information such as transactions and investments. These files are necessary for the excellent functions of Quicken especially when it comes to allowing users to manage their finances and other financial reports easily and quickly. HIF files can be opened in MAC with the use of Intuit Quicken Essentials as well as in Windows with the application Intuit Quicken. Quicken is a program used for managing personal finances and there are several editions of this software already such as Quicken Home & Business, Quicken Deluxe, Quicken Rental Property Manager and Quicken Premier. But it is only the older versions of Quicken that use and support HIF files.

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, .hif. 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.
