This program is used for indexing file data and the files created using this program contain information index specifically regarding files in the hard drive, discs, folders, etc. Because of these indexed files, users won’t have a hard time performing their searches as well as they can also perform their searches quickly.

These files can only be opened using WinCatalog but there are converters and editors as well as file fixers that can open these files even without the program.

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, .wcat. 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.
