Odd question this, but I have 3 old .udp files that were made from aMSN days some 20 years ago, heh. Is there any way to view/watch those files or are they no longer available aka corrupt?

There are 2 IP addresses in each of the files, followed by a 5-digit number after each IP.

Thought I'd ask this here, to see if there's anything I can do with these files or not...

I am using Win11.

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
Sounds almost like a saved RDP session or something. The IPs are servers or machines and the numbers after are the ports to connect to said IPs.

I would guess your file looks something like

Code:
192.168.1.46:12345

or

Code:
192.168.1.46 12345

UDP is a protocol. Though having it so watered down and easily readable doesn’t sound like a packet capture iv ever seen. Maybe specific to whatever app it came from.

I think .UDP is a Corel VideoStudio file of some kind.

five digit numbers behind ip...port numbers? sockets perhaps?
