What is CWIE file?
The file with the extension CWIE is the Misc Files file type. The author of this format is Freescale Semiconductor, Inc.. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files. CodeWarrior appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The CodeWarrior Development Studio application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Freescale Semiconductor, Inc..
How to open CWIE file?
An often recurring problem with CodeWarrior is that CWIE is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file CWIE to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CWIE file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install CodeWarrior Development Studio
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that CodeWarrior Development Studio is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name CodeWarrior Development Studio into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CWIE files.
Programs to open CWIE file
Remember to download programs supporting CWIE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CodeWarrior Development Studio with CWIE files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CWIE file still does not use the CodeWarrior Development Studio program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the CodeWarrior Development Studio application as the default for handling the CWIE file.
Step 3. Update CodeWarrior Development Studio to the latest version
If, despite the association of the CodeWarrior Development Studio program with the CodeWarrior file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CWIE file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The CWIE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the CWIE file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CWIE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected CWIE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of CWIE file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CWIE file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Freescale Semiconductor, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CWIE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move CWIE to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CWIE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CWIE to close. However, some background programs may block the CWIE file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
