How to open FWA file?

An often recurring problem with Manew20 Data Format is that FWA is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file FWA to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FWA 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 RECOIL

The first step is to check if the computer has the RECOIL program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name RECOIL in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FWA with RECOIL. Below is a list of programs that support the file FWA.

Programs to open FWA file

Remember to download programs supporting FWA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with FWA files

If, despite the installed application, the FWA file does not start in the RECOIL application, you must create a file 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 select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FWA file with the RECOIL program.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

If, despite the association of the RECOIL program with the Manew20 Data Format 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 Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FWA 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 FWA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FWA file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FWA file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected FWA file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of FWA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FWA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FWA files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the FWA file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FWA file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
