How to open WDIC file?
The most common problem when using Word 5 For Mac Extension is that a specific WDIC is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that WDIC files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WDIC 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 Microsoft Word
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Word is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Microsoft Word into the system search engine.

Programs to open WDIC file
Remember to download programs supporting WDIC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Word with WDIC files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WDIC file still does not use the Microsoft Word program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the WDIC file with the Microsoft Word program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Word to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Word program with the Word 5 For Mac Extension file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Microsoft Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WDIC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to WDIC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 WDIC file. However, remember that not every infected WDIC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the WDIC file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WDIC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WDIC 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the WDIC file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WDIC to close. However, some background programs may block the WDIC file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
