What is File Extension ASF?
Did someone email you a ASF file and you're not sure how to open it? Maybe you have found a ASF file on your computer and wondering what it's for? Windows might tell you that you can't open it, or in the worst case, you might encounter a ASF file related error message.
Before you can open a ASF file, you'll need to figure out what kind of file the ASF file extension refers to.
Tip: Incorrect ASF file association errors can be a symptom of other underlying issues within your Windows operating system. These invalid entries can also produce associated symptoms such as slow Windows startups, computer freezes, and other PC performance issues. Therefore, it highly recommended that you scan your Windows registry for invalid file associations and other issues related to a fragmented registry.

How To Open Your ASF File:
The fastest and easiest way to open your ASF file is to double-click it. This allows the intelligence of Windows to decide the correct software application to open your ASF file.
In the case that your ASF file doesn't open, it is highly likely that you do not have the correct software application installed on your PC to view or edit ASF file extensions.
If your PC opens the ASF file, but it's the wrong application, you'll need to change your Windows registry file association settings. In other words, Windows is associating ASF file extensions with the wrong software program.
We highly recommend scanning your Windows registry for invalid file associations and other related registry issues.
