A URL, or a uniform resource locator, is typically the address of a website or a web page on the internet. These files can typically also be used by any internet browser and can be saved by Microsoft Internet Explorer, though it usually saves them without the URL extension.
These file formats are also saved in plain text formatting and can be opened with any common text editor in order to edit the URL inside.
