Notes about the HCW 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 HCW file type is primarily associated with 'HTML Help Workshop' by Microsoft Corporation. The wizard macro is an undocumented HTML Help conversion tool for converting .HPJ to .HHP format. To use the technique create a CONVERT.HCW file using any text editor (the name can be any rootname with the .HCW extension). The file should contain a minimum of two lines. The first of them is the full path to the .HPJ file and the second is the full path to the .HHP file you wish to create. Note: these are full pathnames including the drive and all subdirectories on each line. Once created, open the file in HTML Help Worskhop. There should be a quick flash of a dialog box and afterward you should find the help file fully converted. If you need to convert more than one help file add additional line pairs and all will be converted when you run the file in HTML Help Workshop.

Cannot access HCW files on windows?

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open HCW files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

RECOMMENDED:

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
