What are TMP files and how to open them

Are you having problems opening a TMP file or are you simply curious about its contents? We're here to explain the properties of these files and provide you with software that can open or handle your TMP files.

What is a TMP file?

TMP files have multiple uses, and Temporary is one of them. Read more about the other uses further down the page.

Temporary File

TMP files are temporary files created to temporarily hold data on your computer while using a specific software application. Many computer programs create these files, usually when the program you are running cannot allocate enough memory for the task that it is working on.

Although temporary files are supposed to be automatically deleted after serving their purpose, this does not always happen as it should. Because temporary files can contain critical application data, it is not a good idea to remove them manually unless you know that the information within the .tmp file is no longer needed. If you know that the data is no longer necessary, it is usually safe to delete the no-longer-needed TMP file.
