Open JSE File

JSE files, or JavaScript Encoded files, are typically a type of binary file developed by Microsoft Corporation for the Windows 10 software series. Sometimes, you might come across a JSE file that doesn't open when you double-click it. While quite a select few file types utilize the .JSE file extension, this article will elaborate on the formats and ways of how to open and use such files, with distinct coverage for each type of use.

JavaScript Encoded Files

Commonly associated with Microsoft, a JSE file is essentially an encoded JavaScript file. These files may contain a program or software written in JavaScript which has been encoded to hide the original source code, often used for virus and malware distribution. Opening such files can be risky, as running the script may activate the potentially harmful software encoded into the file.

However, if you're certain that the file is safe, one way to open JSE files is with a text editing program such as Notepad++ or Sublime Text. These programs will display the encoded JavaScript, although it may not be understandable unless you're proficient in JavaScript.

Other Uses for JSE Files

While typically used for encoded JavaScript files, the JSE file extension may also refer to JAWS Script Exchange files. JAWS is a screen reader application that provides speech and Braille output for computer users whose vision impairment prevents them from seeing screen content. JSE files for JAWS can be opened with the JAWS software itself.
