what do i open it with?

Through the client in your match history list. It's the only way to view them right now.

That is the replay file. It is where the client pulls the information for the spectator mode.

I believe you can only actually load this file from within the client.

If you have recorded a game while watching it within the client the recorded video will appear in the following folder, which can be viewed in a media player.

I was actually just trying that. I don't think so. I'm not sure ultimately though.

No. The replays are currently only good until the next patch comes out, at which point you won't be able to view them anymore. If there's a specific play you want to keep for a highlight, you'd need to use the record feature while watching the replay, which creates a video file you can just drag and drop into a browser to view.

Just drag and drop the file into a browser and it'll play right in your browser window.
