What is a SAM file?
The SAM file extension is a sample of the LMHOSTS setting file that Microsoft once used for its Windows OS. The operating system is capable of automatically loading its first 100 entries when it boots up. Users can try and tweak the number, but it depends on the computing power of the device eventually.
A SAM file contains a mapping of IP addresses to NetBIOS names of the remote servers that the device is communicating via IP/TCP. Since 2008, Microsoft has skipped using LMHOSTS file for its OS.
