What is a .FLM file?
The .FLM file extension is used for a session file created by a program called Adobe Scout. Adobe Scout is a tool that was designed for people who develop Flash content, which are animations or applications you might see on websites. This tool helps developers find and fix any issues that could make their Flash content run slowly or not work correctly.
When someone uses Adobe Scout to check their Flash content, the program creates a .FLM file. This file contains a lot of important information about the session, or the time spent checking the Flash content. It includes things like details about the Flash file being checked (the SWF file), how fast it runs (frame rate), the version of the programming language used to create it (ActionScript version), what operating system it was tested on, the size of the screen, and more. This is really helpful because it lets developers see exactly what was happening when they were testing their content, and they can share this file with others who might help them fix any problems.
However, it's important to know that Adobe Scout CC, the program that opens these .FLM files, has been discontinued. This means that Adobe no longer updates or supports this program. So, if you have a .FLM file, you would need to have already installed Adobe Scout CC to open it, as it might be difficult to find or use this program now that it's discontinued.
