What is a WTX file?
A WTX file is a plain text document that contains unformatted text, similar to a standard .TXT file. It stores plain text information that doesn't require special formatting, such as notes, code, logs, and simple guides.
More Information
Most users will never encounter a WTX file since the file type is obscure. However, users with Windows 7 configurations where WTX files are set as a default file type association for basic text editing may encounter them. In some cases, software developers choose uncommon file extensions like .wtx to avoid conflicts with more common extensions (like .txt), especially if their program needs to recognize and handle certain text files differently.
How to open a WTX file
You can open WTX files with any text editor, including Microsoft Notepad (Windows), Apple TextEdit (macOS), and gedit (Linux). You may need to change the .wtx file extension to .txt for the text editor to recognize the file type.
