Problems: Are you
having a difficult time opening SXW files? It’s possible
that you don’t have the appropriate program for opening SXW
files installed on your PC or that you have a
registry-related error. SXW files require a compatible
software application such as StarOffice Writer or
OpenOffice.org Writer in order to open properly. To rule out
a SXW-related registry error, run our free registry scan.
Manual Removal
Instructions: To manually remove a file extension SXW file,
right-click the Start button and click on Explore. In
Window’s Explorer’s left side pane, double click on your
hard drive and then go to the Search bar where you will type
in: *.SXW. Windows will search for all SXW files and list
any results. Navigate to the specific SXW you’d like to
delete, right-click the desired SXW file, and click on
Delete. When asked if you are sure you want to send the SXW
file to the Recycle Bin, click on Yes.
Solution/Recommendations: If you are having trouble with the
SXW files or applications, make sure that you are running
the latest version of StarOffice Writer or OpenOffice.org
Writer. Regular updates and patches are released to repair
known SXW errors and other issues with the application. In
addition, SXW file corruption and missing SXW file
associations can often be linked to registry-related errors.
Because of this, we highly recommend a registry scan to rule
out potential problems with the registry itself.
If you have either
StarOffice Writer or OpenOffice Writer installed on your PC
yet are still having trouble opening file extension SXW
files, go back into Windows Explorer and right-click on the
SXW file you’d like to open. Click on Open With and then
click on Choose Default Program. Windows will display a list
of recommended programs. If StarOffice Writer or OpenOffice
Writer is listed, click the appropriate icon. Place a check
mark in the check box that says, “Always use the selected
program to open this kind of file.”
