Files that end with the .dat extension are generic data files that store content like plain text, game data, or user-level data. If the contents of the DAT file are plain text, you can open and edit it in a text editor like Notepad or TextEdit. If the DAT file contains special characters, such as Minecraft level.dat files, you’ll need to use a special editor.
1-Right-click your DAT file and select Open with. If your mouse doesn’t have a right mouse button, hold down the Ctrl key as you click.
2-Select Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac). This opens the file for editing in your text editor.
3-Review and edit the file. If the file contains plain text, you’ll usually be able to tell which application was used to make it. Sometimes, even if it’s filled with unreadable characters, a DAT file will include some text that provides clues as to what type of file it is.
4-Save your changes. If you edit the DAT file in your text editor, you can save your changes by clicking the File menu and selecting Save.
