Open with Oracle Java Virtual Machine. Available for Linux, Windows and Mac.

What is a .RMS file?

The .RMS file extension is used for a special type of file that helps Java applications remember your settings and how you like things to be set up. Think of it as a memory box for the application, where it keeps all the important settings and choices you've made, so it knows how to behave the next time you use it. These files are very important for the application to work the way you want it to, by keeping track of your preferences in a neat and organized way, almost like a structured diary or database for the application's settings.

To open or work with these .RMS files, you need a program called Oracle Java Virtual Machine. This isn't just any program, but a special environment that allows Java applications (the kind that use .RMS files) to run on your computer. It's like creating a small, virtual space on your computer where these applications can live and work properly. You would need the Oracle Java Virtual Machine installed on your computer to interact with or change the settings stored in .RMS files.

An interesting thing about .RMS files is that they usually share their name with another file related to the application, but with a different extension. For example, if there's a Java application file named "myprogram.jar," the .RMS file that contains its settings would be named "myprogram.rms." This naming convention makes it easier to know which .RMS file belongs to which Java application, keeping everything organized and easy to find.
