The r2w file extension is associated with Reflection terminal-emulation software for Microsoft Windows.
An .r2w file stores various Reflection settings in a simple text-based format. The settings can be viewed in a text editor, although Reflection is the software that interprets and applies them.
The file belongs to Reflection's configuration data and is not a general-purpose document format. Its contents are used to restore the saved terminal-emulation options when Reflection loads the file.
You cannot open this file type manually in Reflection. When it is placed in the right folder, Reflection automatically loads and applies the saved settings.
A text editor can display the contents of an .r2w file because it uses a simple text-based format, but editing it manually may change the saved Reflection configuration.
An .r2w file is a settings file and normally has no useful conversion to another file format.
