What is a .PDY file?

A .PDY file is a type of file that is created by a program called Star Finanz StarMoney, which is used on Windows computers. This program is designed for managing online banking activities. When you have a document related to your finances, like an invoice you received or a statement from your bank account, and you scan it into your computer, it usually becomes a .PDF file. However, if you use StarMoney to keep this document safe, the program encrypts this .PDF file for extra security. This means it turns the file into a format that can't be easily read by just anyone. The file then gets a new extension, becoming a .PDY file instead of a .PDF file. This encryption helps protect your sensitive financial information from being accessed by people who shouldn't see it.

To open a .PDY file, you need to use the Star Finanz StarMoney program. This is because the file is encrypted by StarMoney, and only StarMoney has the key to decrypt it, or in other words, to make it readable again. Other programs won't be able to open a .PDY file because they can't decrypt it. So, if you have a .PDY file that you need to view or work with, you'll have to do it through the StarMoney application on a Windows computer.
