FCW ( .FCW) is a vector-based drawing file created with FastCAD Windows Drawing software. The FCW extension was created to save CAD drawing view which includes components of 3D objects, graphs, charts and other vector data. It is a format used to create 2D architectural plans like floor layouts and structure sections.
Features
FCW files are specific to FastCAD software and can only be opened with compatible programs such as FastCAD Windows. To open or view these files, users will require specialised CAD software. With this software, users can access, view and modify the file contents with the features of the software. FCW files are also capable of saving data such as color definitions, layers and 3D styles.
Similar File Extensions
Some similar file extensions include .AWF, .DWF, .FXD, .SVF and .DWG.
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .FCW) 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 .FCW 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 .FCW 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 .FCW 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 .FCW extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .FCW file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .FCW 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 .FCW file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .FCW file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .FCW file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
