How to open WOT file?
The main problem with WebEx Recording Format is that the WOT file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file WOT to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WOT 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 WebEx Player
The first step is to check if the computer has the WebEx Player program installed. This can be achieved by typing WebEx Player into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file WOT.
Programs to open WOT file
Remember to download programs supporting WOT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WebEx Player with WOT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WOT file still does not use the WebEx Player program, it means no association. 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 WebEx Player application as the default for handling the WOT file.
Step 3. Update WebEx Player to the latest version
If, however, after binding WebEx Player with WebEx Recording Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Cisco Systems, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WOT file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WOT file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 WOT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected WOT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WOT files changes over time. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WOT file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Cisco Systems
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WOT 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the WOT file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WOT file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
