The DMP file type refers to a Dump File or Crash Dump File. It is a snapshot of a computer's memory at a specific point in time, usually when a system crash (like the "Blue Screen of Death") occurs, to aid developers in debugging errors.
File Viewer (Universal): If nothing else works, File Magic can automatically detect the right program for your DMP file.
