What is an MWX file

MWX files mostly belong to Minitab.

MWX files are Minitab worksheet files designed to store data and analytical results for statistical work. They use a ZIP-based container to compress and organize data tables, analysis outputs, and related metadata.
These files are generated and used by the Minitab software. They are not meant for direct editing outside of Minitab, though advanced users may extract parts of the file using standard ZIP tools to inspect its structure.
