What is a .cfm file?
A .cfm file is a ColdFusion Markup Language. This is a code, script or executable format.
How to open a .cfm file
- VS Code opens and highlights nearly every text-based code format.
- Never run a script you didn't write or trust.
The registry records this extension against ColdFusion Markup Language, so software from that family is the most likely match.
How to convert a .cfm file
- Text-based code needs no conversion — just save with a different extension if a tool insists.
The technical record
