What is an OEM file?

The .OEM file extension often identifies an OEM Setup File created by Microsoft. These files are Windows text-mode setup scripts. They provide instructions for the operating system to install hardware drivers during the early stages of a system installation. A very common example is the `txtsetup.oem` file.

However, the .OEM extension also applies to the Orbit Ephemeris Message file format. This is a space data standard used by NASA and the CCSDS to store orbit trajectories for spacecraft. Less commonly, it can be an OEMEdit save file.

How to open OEM files?

Because most .OEM files contain plain text, you can open and read them using standard text editors. Software like Notepad++ or Microsoft VS Code can easily display the contents. If the file contains orbit data, aerospace engineers use specialized space mission tools like GMAT to process the trajectory information.
