The .edge file extension is associated with Adobe Edge Animate, an Adobe application for creating animated web content. A project file stores the saved project data and source information used to edit the animation.
Adobe Edge Animate publishes projects as HTML content with associated JavaScript and CSS files. This lets the resulting animation run in a web browser without relying on Adobe Flash.
Adobe Edge Animate was available for Microsoft Windows. Adobe discontinued active development of the application in November 2015, so the .edge format is no longer being developed for current versions of the software.
On Microsoft Windows, open the .edge file with Adobe Edge Animate. The file is a project file and is intended to be opened from within the application so the animation can be edited.
Because Adobe Edge Animate is no longer actively developed, it may not be available on newer systems.
Open the project in Adobe Edge Animate and use its publishing or export function to produce the animation as HTML content, together with the required JavaScript, CSS and other project resources.
This process publishes the project for web use rather than converting it to another editable project format.
