The .HWP file extension is used for Hangeul Word Processor (HWP) documents created with Hanword Processor, part of the HWP Suite by Hancom. It is a Korean word processor you can use to create professional looking documents in an easy and convenient way. It contains formatted text, images, diagrams, and other objects that compose the document’s contents.
The .HWP file format supports tables, presentations, Web documents, vector objects, outlines, and other multimedia items. It is also capable of importing files from other word processing applications such as Microsoft Word ( .DOCX files). It can also be exported to other extensions like .PDF, .HTML, and .ODF. Additionally, the HWP software allows users to create several types of documents like letters, reports, newsletters, blogs, brochures, books, and many more.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .HWP) 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 .HWP 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 .HWP 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 .HWP 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 .HWP extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .HWP file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .HWP 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 .HWP file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .HWP file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .HWP file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
