The 2D file extension belongs to the CAD files category. The author of this format is Archway Systems. Users should use VersaCAD software for managing 2D files. VersaCAD for Windows is intended for use by engineers and draftpersons. The 2D file extension seems mainly related to the 2D drawing format used in VersaCAD. Files with the 2D suffix are usually CAD designs made and saved in VersaCAD. You can open and edit these .2d files only using VersaCAD. Perhaps exporting to CAD exchange formats is possible with VersaCAD.
The most common issue when using the VersaCAD 2D format is that the 2D file is not linked with the program. Thus, when you try to open a 2D file, the program selection wizard or some other program launches. This can be resolved by double-clicking the 2D file icon you wish to open. Next choose “Open with” and select the VersaCAD program. Check the box to always use VersaCAD to open these files.
The system may not open 2D files if no installed programs support the file type. To fix this, install VersaCAD or another program handling 2D files. If a supporting program is installed but not set as default, right-click the 2D file. Select “Open with” and choose the program to always open these files. Update old software to ensure compatibility with the latest 2D file format.
