Finding Documents Transferred from PC to Mac

I bought a Mac Book Air 13 M2 and used Migration to transfer data from my Dell PC.

I opened Finder and I see the documents but they won't open. I really need to access these files.

  • What might the exact format of these documents be? (If you don’t know, right-click on the document and choose “Get Info”.)
  • If, for example, you’re trying to open a Microsoft Word document, that cannot occur unless you purchased an application to open it (e.g., Apple’s Pages application).
