What is an OPW file

OPW files mostly belong to AnyLogic. The OPW file is used in two distinct systems. In its primary use it is an Arena simulation model file. This file stores simulation data and model logic and is designed for use with specialized software such as AnyLogic.

It contains simulation components and process details.
The data structure is proprietary and not viewable in standard text editors.

Alternatively, an OPW file can be an OrgPlus Worksheet file used to create and manage organization charts. This version works with tools like OrgPlus to hold chart layouts and organizational data.

It stores information about organizational relationships.
It must be opened with its native application for proper rendering.

How to open an OPW file

You need a suitable software like AnyLogic to open an OPW file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your OPW file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a OPW file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
