Files with .iwd extension are game resource archives from Call of Duty video games. The IWD file format stores graphics, weapons, items, scripts used during gameplay. IWD files are included compressed to save disk space. An IWD file is a ZIP archive that can be opened with extraction utilities like WinRAR.
Inside an IWD archive is a directory structure holding game data. When loading IWD resources, the game checks for integrity, often refusing improperly modified files. IWD files are frequently modding targets.
Windows associates IWD files with Call of Duty applications. If the file type is not recognized, the user must manually associate IWD with Call of Duty in the Windows Registry. Then right click an unknown IWD file, choose “Open with” and select the Call of Duty application.
Simple tools to work with IWD files include IWD File Opener, IWD File Converter, IWD File Viewer and IWD File Editor. Many unknown file types contain only text data. To learn more about the IWD format visit the file extension overview.
