Open LST File

LST extension files have various utilities namely

Data list

A file with an LST extension could be a file containing a list of data useful for software such as Microsoft Visual Studio and other code editors for software development purposes.

Usually it contains a list of data separated by newlines. The data could be a list of files to be installed by a software installer, or it could be data exported from a spreadsheet or data from a database and dumped into plain text.

Because LST files are plain text, they can be opened, edited, and created using any basic text editor.

Therefore it is highly unlikely that another format will be used to save an LST file, such as binary type, which, if necessary, will have to open the file with the program that originally created it.
