Open MF File

Java

An MF extension file contains information about Java-based file packages, and includes metadata about the file, such as what other files it contains and what files are used.

Manifest files, as they are also known, have the default pathname META-INF/MANIFEST.MF and are saved along with the JAR file.

The default manifest file can be modified with a basic text editor.
