TrID is a file format identification utility, similar in concept to the file command.
The main version is now a multiplatform Python script, but there's a stand-alone executable for Windows x86-64, older versions for Windows 95+ and Linux, plus an online version. It is free for noncommercial use.
See also Trd (TRID).
