How to open WDSP file?
The most common problem when using WebDrive Data Format is that a specific WDSP is not associated with the program. This causes the file WDSP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WDSP 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 WebDrive
The first step is to check if the computer has the WebDrive program installed. This can be achieved by typing WebDrive into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file WDSP with WebDrive. Below is a list of programs that support the file WDSP.
Programs to open WDSP file
Remember to download programs supporting WDSP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WebDrive with WDSP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WDSP file to open in the WebDrive application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 WDSP file with the WebDrive program.
Step 3. Update WebDrive to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WebDrive program with the WebDrive Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the South River Technologies website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WDSP file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WDSP file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WDSP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WDSP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of WDSP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WDSP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WDSP 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the WDSP 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WDSP file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
