All changes (e.g. signal processing like filtering) performed in BESA are kept in PC memory and not saved in the file. That type of approach has a drawback since all settings have to be re-generated whenever the data file is reopened. Therefore to keep all settings and be able to reload them whenever a file will be opened, BESA saves additional files beside the original one (with the same base name, but different file extensions).

| Modules | BESA Research Basic or higher |
| Version | BESA Research 5.2 or higher |
One of the most important rules in BESA software is that the original data will never be changed during data processing (unless the user explicitly wants to do it by himself). All changes (e.g. signal processing like filtering) performed in BESA are kept in PC memory and not saved in the file. That type of approach has a drawback since all settings have to be re-generated whenever the data file is reopened. Therefore to keep all settings and be able to reload them whenever a file will be opened, BESA saves additional files beside the original one (with the same base name, but different file extensions). Note that this approach has one additional advantage: whenever the user wants to start analysis from scratch he or she just needs to delete the files responsible for a particular setting (or all files to get back to the initial state). Therefore a good understanding of BESA file nomenclature may be useful for advanced BESA users.
