.MAKE File

The make file extension is associated with the Makefile used by various compilers of programming languages.

Make reads its instructions from text files. An initialization file is read first, followed by the makefile. The initialization file holds instructions for all “makes” and is used to customize the operation of Make. Make automatically reads the initialization file whenever it starts up.

The makefile has instructions for a specific project. The default name of the makefile is literally makefile.

A make file extension is related to the Makefile, which is used by compilers and development tools.

How to open:

Use compatible tools to work with *.make files.

How to convert:

As far as we know, this .make file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.
