How to open WBT file?

The main problem with WinBatch Script Format is that the WBT file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file WBT to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WBT file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install WinBatch

In this case, you should first verify that the WinBatch application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing WinBatch into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file WBT.

Programs to open WBT file

Remember to download programs supporting WBT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WinBatch with WBT files

If, despite the installed application, the WBT file does not start in the WinBatch application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WBT file with the WinBatch application.

Step 3. Update WinBatch to the latest version

If, despite the association of the WinBatch program with the WinBatch Script Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Wilson WindowWare, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WBT file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The WBT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to WBT files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WBT file. However, remember that not every infected WBT file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of WBT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WBT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Wilson WindowWare, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WBT except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the WBT file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the WBT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WBT file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
