While Symthink is discontinued, the app previously allowed users to list and organize information related to a central question, claim, or idea. Symthink saves these lists as THK files.

How to open a THK file
Since Symthink is no longer available, you can open a THK file in Microsoft Notepad (Windows), Apple TextEdit (Mac), or any other text editor to view the JSON-formatted text it contains. However, viewing a THK file with a text editor will not appear the same as viewing it with Symthink.
Before being discontinued, you could open a THK file with Symthink (Web) by clicking the folder icon in the app's bottom right corner. Then, you could open the sandwich menu, select Import , and navigate to and open your THK file.
