Overview
File Types give Squirrelcart a way to recognize particular files. If you have the Download Delivery module installed, the file extension for each file you add to a download will be checked against the file extensions listed in the File Types table. If a match is found, the icon for that extension is shown next to that file on the Downloads page:
If you are using File Upload product options, File Types tell that feature what file types are available for you to configure.
You can change the default icons via the records in the File Types table, or directly by replacing the corresponding image in your sc_images/icons folder.
