How to open WDR file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WDR 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 Star Wars: TIE Fighter

In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support WDR files.

Programs to open WDR file

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

Step 2. Create association of Star Wars: TIE Fighter with WDR files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WDR file still does not use the Star Wars: TIE Fighter program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WDR file with the Star Wars: TIE Fighter application.

Step 3. Update Star Wars: TIE Fighter to the latest version

If, however, after binding Star Wars: TIE Fighter with Star Wars: Tie Fighter Media there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the LucasArts Entertainment Company, LLC page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the WDR file contents when downloading or copying. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WDR file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WDR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the WDR file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WDR files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact LucasArts Entertainment Company, LLC
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted WDR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. Copying the WDR file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
