Software supporting GFW files

If our GFW Viewer Online did not help you, you have a few more options. For starters, we suggest installing software that supports GFW files Here are some sample programs that can help you. By choosing the option to install dedicated software, you will also be able to e.g. edit the GFW file and sometimes even convert the GFW file.

Advantages and disadvantages of dedicated software

The first important thing is that you will need to download and install a dedicated application that supports the GFW format on your device. In this case, it is not possible to view the GFW file online. This method is more complicated, but it offers more possibilities for working with the GFW file.

Other possibilities to view the contents of the GFW file

If you haven't been able to preview the contents of the GFW file yet, or you don't want to install any dedicated programming to handle these files, you can try something else. Many file types are simply text files or data archives. In this case, it is likely that you will be able to view the contents of GFW with a normal "Notepad". This solution does not guarantee that the problem will be solved, but it will often allow you to view the data in the GFW file to some extent.

As in the case of Notepad, you can also use the data archiving program. Try to open your file with e.g. Winrar or Winzip. If our theory proves to be correct, you should see the tree of files contained in the archive. To get information about what kind of data it is, go to the subpage with information about the GFW file extension.
