About the COL file type:

If Windows cannot find the appropriate program associated with .COL files, then your registry may have errors. Check your Windows registry for errors (includes file association errors).

The COL file extension allows the saving of all collision data involving a car or any other object for the game Grand Theft Auto (GTA) III, Vice City and San Andreas. The file provides for a description of the automobile parts that were damaged in the collision as well as the degree of the damaged suffered by the car. Programs known as CollEditor or Collision File Editor II have the capability of editing these COL files. The COL file extension is likewise used with the MPEG Audio Collection or MAC as a collection file. The MPEG Audio Collection (MAC) allows the user to have an organized collection of audio files with features that include file renamer functionality and a Tag editor. The MAC was initially made by Jurgen Faul but is now presently under the development of the MAC Team.
