About COLPKG
A COLPKG is a whole Anki collection in one file: every deck, note type, note and card with its reviews, and all the media, as Export makes it with Anki collection package picked. Opening one in Anki replaces the collection on that device, while an APKG adds decks to it.
People move their collection to another computer with one, or keep one as a backup, and Anki keeps its own backups as COLPKG files too. AnkiDroid and AnkiMobile import and export them as well.
Filepeek opens the collection as a table, a row for each note with its fields, decks, tags and cards, and its reviews when it has them, so you can look inside a backup without replacing anything. Open a note to see its cards as Anki draws them.

Questions
Will opening it replace my collection?
Not here, since Filepeek only reads it. In Anki, opening a COLPKG replaces the collection on that device, so it helps to look inside first.
What's the difference between COLPKG and APKG?
An APKG holds decks to add to a collection. A COLPKG is a whole collection, which replaces the one it's opened in.
Can I get the notes out as a spreadsheet?
Yes. Choose Export to save every note with its fields, deck and tags as CSV, Excel, JSON or Parquet.
