List of MIME Types with Content types

There are times when you would want the IIS web server to serve a file that has an extension that it does not recognize. That is, a file whose mime type has not been defined. In such a case, IIS would return http error code, 404.3. For the web server to serve the file with that new extension, you need to create a mapping between that extension and the MIME type.

The following MIME types are some MIME types with its File Extension and Content type.

  1. I just want to say after downloading
    the universal file viewer, I can open all these extensions with just one program. Really I don`t need to convert one extension to another
    and worry about how to save the file. If you were looking for open .mpg file https://wikiext.com/mpg this program will definitely simplify the work with any files. I did it and installed such a viewer on a working and my own laptop. No problems...
