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

Step 2. Create association of Planescape: Torment with WED files

If, despite the installed application, the WED file does not start in the Planescape: Torment 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 WED file with the Planescape: Torment application.

In this case, use the Interplay Entertainment Corporation website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WED 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WED file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 WED file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WED 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 WED file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WED files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact BioWare
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted WED 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. 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 WED file to another location.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WED to close. However, some background programs may block the WED file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
