An AWD file (*.awd) is a file type basically associated with FaxView developed by Microsoft. The “AWD” file extension means “At Work Document” and survives as a fax graphic format (Faxviewer Document/AWD Microsoft Fax) though the “At Work” architecture idea is now distributed over different Windows applications and services particularly Microsoft Office Outlook. To open the AWD file, you need the right software like FaxView.

If you have Microsoft Windows 7, it includes Microsoft Picture and Fax Viewer that you can use to open AWD files. Here’s how to enable it on Windows 7. Click “Start”, “Control Panel”, “Programs and Features” then select “Turn Windows features on or off” on the left pane. Wait while the window is loading. In “Windows Features”, scroll down and expand “Print and Document Services”.

Check “Windows Fax and Scan” then click “OK”. Wait until the software is installed then click “Finish”. Alternatively, you can go to Online AWD File Content Viewer to upload and view the contents of the AWD file if you don’t have a suitable program to open it.
