What is a .HMT file?

The .HMT file extension is associated with a type of file called a HighMAT File. HighMAT stands for High Performance Media Access Technology. This technology was created together by two big companies, Microsoft and Panasonic. Its main purpose is to help people store and play back different kinds of digital media, like pictures, music, and videos, on CDs. The content inside a .HMT file is saved in a special format that was designed specifically for this technology.

To open a .HMT file, you would typically use a program called the Microsoft HighMAT Extension. However, it's important to know that Microsoft no longer supports this technology. This means they don't provide updates or help for it anymore. The HighMAT extension was made to work with the CD Writing Wizard on Windows XP, a much older version of Windows. So, if you have a .HMT file and you want to open it, you would need to have access to a computer that still runs Windows XP and has the Microsoft HighMAT Extension installed. Since newer versions of Windows don't support this extension, opening a .HMT file can be quite challenging if you don't have the right setup.
