Frequently asked questions

What is a .fbx file?

A widely-used 3D model interchange format supporting meshes, animation, and materials, common in games and film production.

Can I edit a .fbx file?

Yes — .fbx files are commonly editable with software such as Blender.

Does having a .fbx extension mean the file is safe?

No single extension can guarantee that. Plain documents are generally low-risk to view. If the format supports macros or embedded scripts, keep them disabled unless you specifically expect and trust them. Always consider where the file came from, not just its name.
