How to open file with BLW extension?
The BLW file extension belongs to the category Settings Files. The extended name of this file format is Adobe Photoshop Black and White Presets File. Below is a list of programs that support files with this extension. Just download one of them, then double click on the BLW file, which did not want to open and manually select the program installed by default. The BLW file should open now without any problem.
It can also happen that, despite the installation of one of the following programs, your BLW file will still return an error when you try to run it. In such a case, refer to the next part of our article, where we present solutions to most problems that may occur when you try to work with the new file extension, which is the BLW.

Most of the items on the registry concerning the BLW file are added automatically during installation of the program/application. In some situations, the user himself has to create a new registry entry, and type in the appropriate value. This method can be used to associate a file type with an existing application. Then locate the ProgID of the application in the registry. To access the Windows registry editor - click "Start", type "regedit", and then press ENTER.
To associate the BLW file type with the new application, you must define the ProgID for a particular application and if you want to get information on defining a new ProgID, you should see the program identifiers.

Have you ever got a file that you could not open? Probably the situation was that it had an extension not used before on your computer, e.g. BLW. Such a situation could also take place with other extensions, but it always ended the same - giving you a headache when determining which program should be used to properly open the file.
Typically, Windows has the appropriate software to open the BLW file or just preview its contents. Often, however, there is no such software, and then we need to identify what kind of file it is, and download the appropriate software to support it.
