When dealing with computers, a user will likely run into a file format that he or she won't quite recognize, or probably won't recognize at all. These particular formats are normally hidden from the view of the ordinary user, usually for good reason - most of these files are used internally by the programs that create them and unknowingly modifying or deleting them will most likely cause problems such as glitches and crashing of the program in question. These files go by various extension names that may look weird to a user, but are perfectly harmless and sometimes essential to a particular program. The file extension .1 happens to be one of those file formats.

I really do love FileCure because it's so easy to use - you don't have to be some kind of computer guru to get just what you need!

Plug and play? Not even close. I spent a lot of time trying to get my new, so-called 'plug and play' scanner to work. I was about ready to take it back. ParetoLogic FileCure got it working and saved me a needless trip (and gas!!) back to the store.

I have to admit I'm no computer geek. When something goes wrong, I usually have to call someone to fix it and it costs me a lot of money. When my printer wouldn't work, a friend of mine suggested I try ParetoLogic FileCure a try. I figured it was worth a shot because I was going to have to pay for a geek anyway. I was so happy when it worked... and worked properly!

I figured the graphics card my grandson gave me was broken when I couldn't get it work on my computer. It turns out that I just didn't have the right driver. ParetoLogic FileCure got it workin.

Hello FileCure folks:
I can't thank you enough for this great product. I just bought a new Vista machine and had been having all kinds of problems. First it was my screen and once I got that fixed it was the printer . Finally, my son suggested I try your product. It worked great and continues to keep my computer working. Thanks you.

I hate paying a lot of money for anything. That's why I buy mostly used computer equipment. Last week I thought I got taken when I bought a scanner. It just would not work. ParetoLogic Driver Cure got it working. With the updates, it makes sure my stuff will keep working and that I don't have to pay more money.

I work at a school so my mom thinks I am some kind of computer whiz. I have wasted so much time trying to get her stuff to work. Our IT guy suggested I try ParetoLogic FileCure. It has been a godsend and has saved me a lot of wasted hours. My mom and I can't thank you enough.

My wife bought me a new Vista system, and ever since I have had problems with some of my hardware. I saw FileCure, and decided to give it a shot. Ever since, the Vista and my hardware have been working great. Thanks!

I upgraded my system to Vista, and my printer started to act funny. No error messages, but it just wasn't working quite right. I read that drivers could sometimes be the problem. I looked online and saw FileCure. After downloading FileCure, my printer works great. You guys rock!

Surprisingly, the file extension 1 name is used for nearly a dozen different files by several different software programs. The vast majority of these files are backup and archive files that are normally used internally within the aforementioned software programs. One of those programs that use the .1 file extension is "The File Splitter", a freeware Windows program that splits a large file into pieces of any size.

This becomes useful when a user wishes to transfer a large file from one computer to another but does not have the adequate space to do so in one go. The File Splitter can also be used to break down large e-mail attachments, circumventing attachment size limits. The file extension 1, in this case, is a File Splitter split file portion.
The .1 file extension is also used by other applications for a variety of files serving different uses. The UNIX operating system uses the .1 file extension for the roff/noff/troff/gruff unformatted manual page. These manual pages are included in compiled applications and come in "nroff encoded" and plain text format. While the plain text format can be easily read, the nroff encoded format has to be formatted using an nroff utility. Most commands on UNIX and LINUX machines usually have an associated manual page, varying in degrees of detail and comprehensiveness. Meanwhile, PTC's Pro/ENGINEER uses the .1 file extension as a backup file. Pro/ENGINEER is an integrated 3D CAD/CAM/CAE modeling software package that is used primarily for mechanical engineering, design and manufacturing. A number of companies within the aerospace, defense, automotive, industrial and medical industries use this program to create complete 3D digital models of their products.
The archiving and compression utility "StuffIt" uses the .1 file extension format as an archive file, usually whenever a single file is split off into a number of portions of various sizes ranging from 1.44MB to 700MB or more. StuffIt was primarily used on the Apple Mac OS operating system as the standard file archiving and compression utility, although it is also available on the Windows operating system as well. The extension is also used by America Online's AIM AOL Instant Messenger program. The files are normally unseen and the file extension itself can range in number from .1 to .999. These files are generally harmless and don't carry a risk of being infected by viruses, although users still have to exercise caution when dealing with them.
Mozilla uses the .1 file extension for Firefox web browser's cookie, image and popup permissions. These files are normally located deep within the installation folder's hierarchy. Since the cookie, image and popup permissions can be modified via the web browser, there is no need to directly access these files. In the event that these files are infected with a virus, running an anti-virus utility will usually solve most problems.
