How to open WSQ file?
An often recurring problem with UTAU is that WSQ is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file WSQ 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 WSQ 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 Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support WSQ files.
Programs to open WSQ file
Remember to download programs supporting WSQ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU with WSQ files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WSQ file still does not use the Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU 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. 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the WSQ file with the Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU program.
Step 3. Update Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Vocal Synthesizer Tool UTAU program, it is possible that UTAU requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the UTAU Team website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WSQ file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the WSQ file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WSQ file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected WSQ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WSQ files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WSQ file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact UTAU Team
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WSQ 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the WSQ file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the WSQ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WSQ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
