Here is a list of best free FBX to OBJ converter software for Windows. Using these software, you can convert an Autodesk FBX file to Wavefront OBJ format. In most of these, you can import a single FBX file and then convert it to OBJ formats using the export function. While some of these also let you batch convert FBX to OBJ at once. Other than OBJ, you can convert FBX to a lot of other 3D model files such as DXF, DWG, 3DS, DAE, etc.

Before conversion, these software allow you to set up output OBJ configurations like triangulate polygons, remove duplicate vertex normals, line length limit, line terminator type, use bone welds, remove unused vertices, collapse UV tiles, write surfaces, etc. A few of these FBX to OBJ converter let you edit an FBX file before conversion. For editing, you can use various tools such as transformation options, drawing tools, measurement options, material editor, etc. Besides that, all of these are good 3D model viewer too.
