Mac OS X Application Framework File
You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .framework. Files with the file extension .framework can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .framework files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .framework file?
A Mac OS X application framework file is used by particular applications developed for the Mac OS X system, and these Mac programs with associated features may be required to reference relevant data stored in certain Mac OS X application framework files. These files are classified as developer files and are integrated with encoding and compilation specifications proprietary to Apple. A Mac OS X application framework file is saved in the FRAMEWORK format and is affixed with the .framework extension. These FRAMEWORK files are archives of files, reference data and even other archives, which may include libraries or modules, directory locations and details of different files used by Mac OS X applications among other metadata info. Supporting programs may also be included in the data stored in these FRAMEWORK files. Clicking on the "Show Package Contents" menu item that appears after right-clicking on a certain FRAMEWORK file of a Mac OS X software will prompt the system to display the data stored in the FRAMEWORK archive file.
how to open a .framework file?
Launch a .framework file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .framework file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .framework files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .framework file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a .framework file will open the correct application. Click here to fix .framework file association errors

Mac OS X
Mac OS X
Mac OS X is an Apple product, which is a series of operating systems that is based on Unix, developed exclusively for Macintosh computers and tablets. These include MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Mac Pro, Mac Mini, Xserve, and iMac. However, some Microsoft applications, such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Exchange Server, work with this operating system. In fact, it enables file sharing from Windows OS powered PCs to OS X computers. Generally, like other operating systems, Mac OS X is designed with friendly-user, graphical interface in which users are able to operate different tasks displayed on the desktop or from the main menu. Different applications are integrated for various uses and tasks, including typing, Web browsing, launching media player, and other typical activities a person can do with a computer. This OS can open a list of file formats from Microsoft offices (.doc,) to PDF (.pdf), photos (.jpg, .png, .gif) to audios or videos (.wav, .mpeg, .mp3) and others. It is also compatible with a variety of standard devices and peripherals like printers, scanners, cameras (webcam and digital cameras).a word of warning
Be careful not to rename the extension on .framework files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.
what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .framework. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
