Template Support
The CWS file extension is a template type file, which includes all the various formatting settings that are needed to create blank documents or spreadsheets. It also contains macros and scripts that are used to automate common tasks, such as formatting text or inserting images. The CWS file extension supports a wide variety of common document types, including plain text documents, HTML documents, Microsoft Word documents, Adobe PDF files, spreadsheets, photos, and forms.
Compatibility
Files with the CWS file extension are opened in the Claris Works software. This program is compatible with both Windows and Macintosh operating systems. It can also be used on computers that run Linux distributions. The CWS file extension is generally considered to be cross-platform compatible with other popular programs such as Microsoft Word (.docx), Notepad (.txt), and OpenOffice (.odt). Other similar file extensions include.doc,.rtf,.wpd,.wps,.xlsx, and.odt.
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .CWS) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .CWS extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .CWS file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .CWS extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .CWS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .CWS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .CWS file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .CWS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .CWS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .CWS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
