Cardfile (sometimes spelled CardFile or Card File) is an address book application, with a native .crd file format. It was included with Microsoft Windows 1.0 through Windows Me and Windows NT 4. It has apparently been used as a clip art format.

Reportedly, the Cardfile source code was included in some Windows SDKs.
