How to open MWA file?
The main problem with MicroWorlds EX Turtle Data Format is that the MWA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that MWA files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MWA 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 MicroWorlds
The first step is to check if the computer has the MicroWorlds program installed. To do this, enter the name MicroWorlds into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file MWA.
Programs to open MWA file
Remember to download programs supporting MWA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MicroWorlds with MWA files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MWA file still does not use the MicroWorlds program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the MWA file with the MicroWorlds program.
Step 3. Update MicroWorlds to the latest version
If, however, after binding MicroWorlds with MicroWorlds EX Turtle Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Logo Computer Systems Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MWA file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the MWA file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MWA file. However, remember that not every infected MWA 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 MWA 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MWA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file MWA except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the MWA file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MWA file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MWA file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MWA file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
