What is a .APPLET file?
The .APPLET file is a developer file used in Eclipse, which is a program for developing software. This file is automatically created by Eclipse when you start a new applet project. It is saved in the main folder of the project under the name java.security.policy. The file includes settings that determine what security permissions the applet has.
Programs that can open this file: Eclipse More Information: The java.security.policy file typically has a setting that grants all permissions to the applet's codebase. This setting looks like this: ``` grant { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; ``` This setting is usually okay for when you are developing on your own computer. However, if you are planning to publish your applet where others can use it, you might need to change this setting to limit what the applet can do, to make it safer for public use.

Our goal is to help people find the most up-to-date information about file extensions for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS. We researched over 10,000 file extensions and their respective programs that open those files. If you want to suggest edits or updates about .APPLET file formats, example files, or programs that are compatible. Please contact us.
