Sources of WRS Problems


Frequent WRS Opening Issues

Corel WordPerfect X8 Isn't There

When trying to open your WRS file, you get the error "Can't Open WRS File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have Corel WordPerfect X8 for %%os%% installed. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the WRS file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.


Tip: If you don't have Corel WordPerfect X8 installed, and you know of another program to open your WRS file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


Corel WordPerfect X8 is Out-of-Date

It is possible that your version of Corel WordPerfect X8 isn't able to open your Corel WordPerfect Windows Printer Driver File file due to incompatibility. Installing the latest version of Corel WordPerfect X8 from Corel is recommended. The primary cause of this problem is that your Corel WordPerfect Windows Printer Driver File file was created by a different (newer) version of Corel WordPerfect X8 than what's installed.


Tip: Right-clicking on your WRS, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.


Conclusion: The majority of WRS file opening issues are due to not having the correct Corel WordPerfect X8 version installed.
