A file extension tells what type of file it is. Windows associates programs to file extensions. When that program is no longer on your PC, you may get an error opening the file. File extensions are the characters at the end of a filename – in this case, .pim.
Without software you may get a Windows message “How open this file?” or “Windows cannot open this file”. To open your PIM file correctly, try right-clicking or long-pressing it.
PIM’s format compresses multimedia files. To create a PIM archive, select “New”. Then add files or folders. After adding files you cannot add more.
You can open a PIM file with PIMShell. To open, select “Open” and navigate to your PIM file.
