File Extension EFW

File type: Renamed ZIP or EXE or RAR File

Notes about the EFW file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The EFW file type is primarily associated with 'CA Security Center' by CA. Use an editor to look at the first two characters in the file. If they are PK then the file is a renamed ZIP file; if MZ then the file is a renamed EXE file; if Rar! then the file is a renamed RAR file. Rename the file accordingly and then either use an archive utility like 7-Zip to open the file or run it as a program. Be VERY careful with these files as an anti-virus program has renamed them for some reason. They could be infected.
