Windows 10: How to associate Word with .WPS documents in Windows 10

On a new Windows 10 computer that came with a digital license for Office Home & Student 2019 I have copied some old Works formatted .WPS documents. If I launch Word then open one of them I can work on it with no difficulty. I would like to be able to double click the file in File Explorer and have Word associated with the .WPS extension so that Word opens with that document. How do I do that please ?

wps documents

I have uploaded word documents from Vista to Windows 10. All of the word documents (wps) are in an unreadable format. How can I change the format to a readable format? What do I do? All other documents were fine.

 

Wrong "remove from list" document on word mobile.

Hi,

To further assist you with your concern about re-enabling files that were removed from the Recent Documents List in Word, we suggest to follow this steps:

• Click the FILE tab in the program.
• Click Options from the list on the left side of the screen.
• On the Word Options dialog box, click Advanced in the list of options on the left.
• On the Advanced screen, scroll down to the Display section. Select the value in the Show this number of Recent Documents edit box. You can choose to change the value to 0 to disable the list.
  
• When you open Word, or select the Open option in the program, there are no documents in your Recent Documents list.
• To re-enable the list, go back into the Word Options dialog box and enter the desired value (from 0 to 50, inclusive) in the Show this number of Recent Documents edit box on the Advanced screen. If any documents were previously displayed in the Recent Documents
  list, they are added to the list again.
  

We're just here if you have further questions.

Regards.
