About CWZ files

A .CWZ file is primarily an electronic circuit design and simulation file created by Circuit Wizard. Less commonly, it functions as a crash report context or dump file generated by software like CS Odessa ConceptDraw or Cisco Webex.

The .CWZ format is highly proprietary and closed. It locks user data - such as schematic diagrams, printed circuit board (PCB) layouts, component lists, and simulation models - into a single vendor ecosystem. Users who do not have an active, paid license for Circuit Wizard cannot natively open, view, or edit these schematics. Furthermore, the format is entirely unsupported by web browsers or standard image viewers.

To share these schematics, the best conversion targets are PDF or standard raster images like PNG. For manufacturing, users must export to Gerber files. Direct, offline conversion to standard Electronic Design Automation (EDA) formats like SPICE netlists or DXF is virtually impossible without the original software.

Because this is a closed, proprietary format, standard online converters fail to process it. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing text or partial conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your CWZ file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted CWT, CWS, FZPZ, PDF, FLA, CHD, XD, PB1 and NTP files.

The CWZ Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our CWZ converter.
