Is there any way to read a Mac file without an extension? I received a few files from a Mac friend, but cannot read them.

Thanks,

Warm Regards,

Manually append the file extension by simply renaming the file. For example, rename "Document" to "Document.doc"

Edit: or have your friend save or rename the file with the file extension. Either way will work.

Yep, either add the extension yourself, or ask your friend what file type they should be if you aren't sure.
