What file is NFO? How to open

NFO, what's the file?

. NFO is generally a system information file, usually when the double hits open it will call the process to open the Windows System Information program. In fact, it can be opened by Notepad, by holding down SHIFT and clicking on the. nfo file, selecting the open mode, and selecting Notepad in the program list (98 system is Notepad) can open the text content in the view. You can try to rename a. nfo suffix with a. txt suffix, and you can see that the icon of the file changes to a computer's shape, which is the icon for the System Information program. This feature of the NFO file can be used to keep some text files secret, More and more of the various download stations use their information files as a register to crack, making this feature widely known, so today the secrecy is not reliable.

In these nfo files, one (usually the largest) is the most important, and it records a brief introduction to the software, cracking information, installation instructions, and breaking down some of the organization's own information. The rest of the NFO files contain much less information and can be largely ignored. All of this information is in English. "NFO" comes from the 2nd to 4th letters of the word "information". The role of the NFO file is now clear, and that's basically it.

The file named File_id.diz records the full name of the software package. This document has played a role in the early days of Internet development, and has now been basically made available in NFO files, keeping it entirely out of a habit, or keeping it forward compatible.

The NFO file is the same as the File_id.diz format, and is a plain text file. To see their content, use a text editor such as WordPad. However, most of the time you use WordPad to open nfo files, you will see a lot of garbled, this is what reason?

To answer this question, you must have an understanding of extended ASCII. Extended ASCII has a total of 256 characters, of which 0 to 7f include most of our commonly used characters, such as letters, symbols, and so on. The characters 80 and above are not commonly used, and part of them is used as tabs. Typically, the Chinese system uses 2 ASCII characters to represent a Chinese character. But in order not to conflict with the commonly used characters, the Chinese system uses 80 and more characters. But the problem is that these characters also include tabs and so on. So the former Chinese character system often has the problem of Chinese character recognition. NFO not only used the characters below 7f, but also used a lot of tabs and non-standard line breaks. So if we open a nfo, often can see the so-called garbled, is this reason! This phenomenon is particularly prevalent in non-English operating systems.

So in order to view the contents of the NFO file normally, we need a dedicated NFO viewing tool. In fact, the existing NFO view tools and ordinary text editor is not a lot of differences in nature, but they use the standard English fonts to display files! We can see the contents of the NFO file correctly, but if there are characters in nfo file, we will see the garbled code.

We download the DVDRip, often have a suffix named *.nfo file, many people do not know what is, so take it as a garbage directly deleted! In fact, the NFO document only recorded the film system author in the production of the pieces of data information, delete and do not delete does not affect the film's appreciation! However, If you know how to look at this information, then the definition of a movie, sound, capacity size, release date and so on are clear, so that the information can be determined whether it is worth it! At present, in the domestic broadband conditions are generally not very ideal situation, this NFO file can be sent to a great use! Now most of the domestic Film Forum, the lack of NFO film is not allowed to upload!

Next, let me introduce the various information in the NFO file:
