Webmin makes use of WBM files for its modules. The .wbm file extension is associated with Webmin and is used for its module packages. Modules are essentially tools within Webmin that allow you to perform specific administration tasks with a GUI interface in your web browser.

In both cases, the files are usually used to save information for later use.

Keep in mind that, in the case of Webmin, you need to use the Webmin software to open .wbm files.
