WLL Troubleshooting


Frequent WLL Opening Issues

The Sims Removed

When you double-click your WLL file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because The Sims isn't installed on your PC. The typical path of opening your WLL with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: When you have another program installed that you know will open your WLL, you can select it from the other programs listed (see "Show Apps").


Outdated The Sims

It is possible that your version of The Sims isn't able to open your The Sims Wall Texture File Format file due to incompatibility. Installing the latest version of The Sims from Electronic Arts is recommended. Most of the time your The Sims Wall Texture File Format file was created by a newer The Sims than what you have installed.


Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your WLL file and clicking "Properties".


Conclusion: The majority of WLL file opening issues are due to not having the correct The Sims version installed.


Additional WLL Opening Issues

You can still experience errors opening WLL files even with the latest version of The Sims installed on your PC. If you are still having problems opening WLL files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Additional factors include:

  • Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for WLL
  • The WLL file description within the Windows Registry was removed
  • Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the WLL format
  • Your WLL can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
  • Your WLL has adversely impacted by malware
