Programs to open WSI file

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

Step 2. Create association of Wise Package Studio with WSI files

If, despite the installed application, the WSI file does not start in the Wise Package Studio 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 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 WSI file with the Wise Package Studio program.

Step 3. Update Wise Package Studio to the latest version

If, however, after binding Wise Package Studio with Wise Package Studio Installer Package 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 Symantec Corporation page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WSI file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WSI or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected WSI file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of WSI file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WSI files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Symantec, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WSI 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the WSI file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WSI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WSI file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
