How to open WPROJ file?

The main problem with Wwise Project Format is that the WPROJ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that WPROJ files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WPROJ 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 Wwise

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Wwise is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Wwise in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support WPROJ files.

Programs to open WPROJ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Wwise with WPROJ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WPROJ file to open in the Wwise application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Wwise application as the default for handling the WPROJ file.

Step 3. Update Wwise to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Wwise program, it is possible that Wwise Project Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Audiokinetic Inc. website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WPROJ file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WPROJ file. Sometimes virus-infected WPROJ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of WPROJ 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WPROJ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Audiokinetic help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WPROJ files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move WPROJ to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WPROJ to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WPROJ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
