- Description
- A Symbolic Link File (SLK) is a file type used for creating links between files on a computer or network. It is a type of shortcut that allows users to access another file or folder without having to type out the full path. It is similar to an alias in macOS or a symbolic link in Linux and Unix systems.
- A DBF (Database File) is a file format that originated with the dBASE database management system, which was one of the first widely used database systems in the 1980s. The format has since been adopted and supported by other database and software applications for storing structured data in a tabular form. A DBF file typically contains a header, which defines the structure of the database, including information about fields (columns) such as name, type, and size, followed by records (rows).
