What is a RSS file?

Files with the .rss extension are most commonly associated with rich site summary files. These files are XML files that are used by a variety of websites to distribute information via RSS feed. The RSS files often contain news headlines and other Web content in a text-only format that opens the RSS feed in Web browsers that support the format.

The .rss file extension is also used for PlanMan image files, ReliaSoft BlockSim files, Symbian OS application resource files and Rockwell Logix 500 SLC-5 software files.

A file extension is the characters after the last dot in a file name. For example, in the file name "winmail.dat", the file extension is "dat". It helps Windows select the right program to open the file.
