- Description
- An NEF file is a raw photo captured by a Nikon digital camera. It is saved in an uncompressed format that stores data exactly as it was captured by the CCD. NEF files also contain image metadata, which includes the camera ID and the lens that was used.
- The AW file type, standing for Answer Wizard File, is associated primarily with Microsoft Office applications, particularly with Microsoft Word and its integrated help system. AW files are designed to store indexes and data used by the Answer Wizard feature, enabling users to search for and receive help or answers to questions about using Microsoft Office programs. The Answer Wizard offers a more intuitive way for users to find assistance by allowing them to type questions in natural language, after which it searches through its database of AW files to provide relevant help.
