    Looking for a good program to identify file types, something that gives more details then Windows 7 which is what i use, something where i can right click then analyze?

    This is not a program - just an online database.

    Just wanted to make sure you know that you can have your file extensions show in Win7 if you don't already. It is always the first thing I change when I load an OS. It doesn't give any details just helps you identify most files by looking at them.

    Start>type in folder options and hit enter>View tab>untick the box for "Hide extensions for known filetypes". Apply.
