Open SETTINGS File

SETTINGS extension files can be used by various types of formats and for applications defined by them, some of them you will see below:

Visual Studio

In this section, the SETTINGS extension file is used as a settings file created by Visual Studio, a software development tool used to create Windows programs and other software.

Visual Studio is an Integrated Development Environment, or as it is better known, by its acronym IDE, developed by Microsoft.

This IDE is used to develop computer programs of various kinds and technologies, as well as for various platforms, whether for desktops, websites, web applications, web services and mobile applications.

The SETTINGS file is not a programming or source code file, but rather contains configuration information for the Visual Studio IDE, including editor settings, projects, debugging, fonts, colors, window layouts and other display preferences.

VSSETTING files are used to share workspace settings. They can be exported and then imported into a different installation of Visual Studio.

It is important to note that SETTINGS files are saved in an XML format.

Minecraft iConomy Plugin

In this section, the SETTINGS file, and very similar to the previous case, is a Minecraft properties file used by iConomy, a plugin for Minecraft used to create a virtual economy in the game.

Minecraft is a sandbox video game developed by Mojang, through the programmer Markus "Notch" Persson and was made in the Java programming language.

After several early private test versions, first going public in May 2009 before fully launching in November 2011, Minecraft has since been ported to several other platforms and is the best-selling video game of all time.

In this case, the SETTINGS file contains properties used to configure the plug-in's settings.

A plug-in is a code module that is used for very specific purposes, such as extra configuration or to complete a function of the main program.
