public class WinFormsEditorEditorPane 
    : BaseWinFormsEditorPane<WinFormsEditorFactory, Controls.WinForms.WinFormUserControl>
{
    #region Methods
    protected override string GetFileExtension()
    {
        return ".myExtension";
    }
    protected override void LoadFile(string fileName)
    {}
    protected override void SaveFile(string fileName)
    {}    
    #endregion Methods
}

Package registration:

 [ProvideEditorExtension(typeof(Editors.WinFormsEditorFactory), ".myExtension", 50,
      ProjectGuid = "7D346946-3421-48C0-A98A-20790CB68B3C", NameResourceID = 133,
      TemplateDir = @".\NullPath")]
public sealed class VSPackageCustomEditors : Package
{
     protected override void Initialize()
    {
        base.Initialize();
            /*
             * Registering editor with WinForms control
             * *.myExtension
             */
            base.RegisterEditorFactory(new Editors.WinFormsEditorFactory()); 
    }
}
