.$$$ file extension

.$$$

Temporary file. A generic file extension for temporary files (although it is more frequent for temporary files to use .tmp as the file extension).

Temporary files can be deleted if they are no longer in use. In theory they should be deleted automatically by the software that creates them, but this frequently does not happen. Temporary files are normally created in a designated temporary files folder, but not always.
