Best Answer

You're computer is regonising a file as an "Unknown File" only because it has no understanding of that file extention. Right click the file and select "Properties", find the extention name (Eg, .exe) and search for software that will read that extention name. If you're having further problems consult someone on a Technical Help Forum.
