Where can I find Toolkit SID file ?

Authors list

ToolKit may ask for a  *.SID file during the first connection to that device. Once the directory of the file got defined, ToolKit will not ask again.

The *.SID file gets copied and is located in the same directory as the *.WTOOL file. 


If you don’t have the *.SID file yet, many controls configuration files can get downloaded here:

  • download the *.MSI file (Microsoft Installer Package), which contains the *.WTOOL and *.SID file


File types for your reference:

*.WTOOL File = contains all  display screens and pages for online configuration, which are associated with the respective *.SID file. 

*.SID File =  contain all display and configuration parameters available in ToolKit 

*.WSET File =  contain all settings of the ToolKit configuration parameters provided by the SID file or user-defined settings read from the unit. 

Please add or modify the file location directory:

Woodward Windows based installers, got changed over time, which results in different possible SID file directories:

  • C:\ProgramData\Woodward\ToolKit\Applications (ProgramData is a hidden folder in default settings of Microsoft)

  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Woodward\ToolKit\Applications

  • C:\Users\username\Documents\Woodward\Toolkit\Applications

  • user-defined locations
