What is an ACCDT file?

Files that contain the .accdt file extension are most commonly used by the Microsoft Access database application. The ACCDT files contain template files that are used within the Microsoft Access software.

The template files that are utilized by Microsoft Access allow a user to create database files with the same formatting without the need to re-create each individual file from scratch. The ACCDT template files are saved in a compressed archive of XML and text files, allowing a user to access the pre-saved template with a single click.

Each Access template that a user creates and saves is saved with the .accdt file suffix.
