The CFG file extension denotes a configuration file. In the Windows operating system, configuration files are often named "config.cfg" or a similar file name with the ".cfg" file extension. CFG files are text-based files that you can create and view in a text editor. In many cases, Windows installations automatically create these configuration files for applications. To create your own CFG file, use Windows' native text editor Notepad.
