Understanding WDPROJ Issues

Typical WDPROJ Opening Challenges

Microsoft Visual Studio Not Present

When trying to open your WDPROJ file, you get the error "Can't Open WDPROJ File Type". When this happens, it is commonly due to Microsoft Visual Studio missing in %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your WDPROJ file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: Another WDPROJ-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.

Outdated Microsoft Visual Studio

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed that's incompatible with your Microsoft Visual Studio Web Deployment Project File type. If you do not have the proper version Microsoft Visual Studio (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above.
