What is a DOWNLOAD file?
A DOWNLOAD file extension is a temporary file type that stores ongoing download files or the interrupted ones which couldn’t finish downloading. Most web browsers create them, such as Apple’s Safari or Google Chrome. While the user is downloading a file, it has the extension DOWNLOAD appended to it.
Say that you are downloading an audio file that goes by the name myaudiofile.mp3. It becomes myaudiofile.mp3.download when the download is ongoing. As soon as it completes, the DOWNLOAD extension is removed and makes the file ready to be used. For any interrupted file that cannot be restarted, you can tap on it and choose the relevant application to run the file. You can also rename the extension to suffice the same purpose.
