Installation Note 48874: A list of SAS® file types with the default actions registered in the Windows registry
The following is a table of SAS file types and the location for the default file type action in the Windows registry. The commands specified at the following locations are the commands that are executed when you double-click each SAS file extension.
The file extensions shown in boldface are the most commonly used extensions.
Warning: SAS is not responsible when you edit the Windows registry: changes in the Windows registry can render your system unusable and require that you reinstall the operating system. Always back up your registry before you make any registry changes. For assistance, see Windows Help, Microsoft documentation, or the Microsoft Windows website.
