Other options

If you still cannot see the contents of the PREF file, but also don't see the need to install dedicated software, then there are other solutions. Many file types are simply text files or data archives. If this is the case, you can try to preview the contents of PREF file with "Notepad". This does not guarantee success, but in most cases it will allow you to see the contents of the PREF file to some extent.

As in the case of Notepad, you can also use the data archiving program. Check if you can open your file with eg Winrar. If your PREF file belongs to the archived files category, you will see a list of files inside the archive. To get information about what kind of data it is, go to the subpage with information about the PREF file extension.
