Open RESUME File

Netscape SmartDownload uses the RESUME file format to save digital media with partially downloaded content.

Netscape Communications Corporation, the developer of Netscape SmartDownload, was an American independent computer services company headquartered in Mountain View, California and was responsible for developing and maintaining the Netscape browser, which is also obsolete and out of use.

These RESUME files are classified as temporary files that can also be generated by other download management tools and applets in addition to the Netscape SmartDownload application.

A RESUME file can contain data associated with the media file that Netscape SmartDownload is currently downloading.

These RESUME files are typically stored in the same directory where the user chose to download the associated media files.

Opening these RESUME files with the application that created them may instruct the program to continue the process of downloading the associated media.

These RESUME files may also contain code that is relevant to the web directory location of the corresponding media file, among other pieces of information, which may allow Netscape SmartDownload to successfully download the file or continue with the download process without issue (in case that the download process stops abruptly for whatever reason).
