Common WCR Opening Problems

Missing Ergane

When trying to open your WCR file, you get the error "Can't Open WCR File Type". When this happens, it is commonly due to Ergane missing in %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the WCR file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.


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


Incorrect Ergane Version

Your Ergane Configuration File file is incompatible with Ergane because you might have the wrong version installed. Visit the Open Source website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Ergane. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


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


Summary: Not having the right Ergane version on your computer can cause problems opening WCR files.


Associated Difficulties Loading WCR Files

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of Ergane will resolve your issue. If you are still having problems opening WCR files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. These issues include:

  • The WCR itself is corrupted
