How to open HEXDWC file?
The main problem with HHD Software Hex Editor Configuration Format is that the HEXDWC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file HEXDWC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HEXDWC 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 Free Hex Editor Neo

Programs to open HEXDWC file
Remember to download programs supporting HEXDWC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Free Hex Editor Neo with HEXDWC files
If, despite the installed application, the HEXDWC file does not start in the Free Hex Editor Neo application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the HEXDWC file with the Free Hex Editor Neo application.
Step 3. Update Free Hex Editor Neo to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Free Hex Editor Neo program with the HHD Software Hex Editor Configuration Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the HHD Software Ltd. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HEXDWC file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to HEXDWC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the HEXDWC file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected HEXDWC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HEXDWC files changes over time. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair HEXDWC file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted HEXDWC 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the HEXDWC file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HEXDWC to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
