What is a DWI file?

DWI files mostly belong to Dependency Walker by Steve P. Miller. Dependency Walker is a free utility that scans any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows module (EXE, DLL, OCX, SYS, etc.) and builds a hierarchical tree diagram of all dependent modules.

How to open DWI files

You need a suitable software like Dependency Walker to open a DWI 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 DWI file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a DWI file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
