About OW files

OW files are proprietary file formats primarily associated with software applications developed by OutWit Technologies. These files can encapsulate a wide range of data, from web scraping results to specific application settings. Because of their specialized nature, converting OW files requires careful consideration and the right tools to ensure data integrity.

Conversion Methods and Tools:

Converting OW files involves utilizing software that can accurately interpret and transform the data. Desktop applications like LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice might support some OW file conversions, especially for document-like data within the files. Additionally, Microsoft Excel and Notepad++ can be used for viewing and converting text-based OW files into formats like .csv, .xls, or .txt. For a comprehensive understanding of file formats, visit the Wikipedia list of file formats.

Conversion Challenges:

There are several challenges associated with converting OW files. First, the lack of widespread support can make it difficult to find reliable conversion tools. Additionally, the proprietary nature of OW files means that not all data structures might be preserved during conversion. This can lead to loss of data or functionality, especially if the file contains complex or application-specific information.

Drawbacks of Using OW Files:

OW files are not universally supported, which can hinder compatibility and sharing. This makes it crucial for users to convert them into more accessible formats. For a hassle-free conversion experience, you can simply drag-and-drop your OW files into the user-friendly interface of Convert.Guru. This platform offers a safe and reliable solution for converting OW files into a variety of popular formats, ensuring your data is preserved and accessible.


The OW Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best OW converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
