Adobe Authorware was an interpreted, flowchart-based graphical programming and authoring environment for creating interactive programs and multimedia applications. The .a6d file belongs to this software and stores an Authorware model.
Authorware was available for Microsoft Windows, and this file is associated with its Windows version. The format is obsolete because Adobe Authorware is no longer actively maintained.
Open the .a6d file with Adobe Authorware on Microsoft Windows. The file may require the original or a compatible legacy Authorware installation.
Modern general-purpose applications do not normally open this obsolete format.
The .a6d format is a software-specific model file rather than a standard interchange format.
If the file opens in a compatible version of Adobe Authorware, use that software's project publishing or export options where available.
