Windows 10: Setting for opening WPS files in Windows 10

I have files made on WPS from 1998 and possibly earlier. My latest alteration to any of these was recorded as made on 20 May 2015. SSince some time after that, these files will only come up as symbols. None of the default settings offered will work.

Please help!

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Edit/Open WPS files in Windows 10

Hi,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community and for your interest in Windows 10.



I can understand, how frustrating it can be, when things don’t work as expected.



We apologize for the inconvenience caused.



I'd be glad to help you.

Please answer the query, mentioned below:

• Do you have Works installed on the new PC? If not, do you have Word installed on the new PC?

WPS indicates a Works word processor format.

If you have Office suite installed on the computer, you may open Word and try to access it within the Word application.

• Open Word, then File - Open and browse to the .wps file.

Let's try to refer the below article to know how to access Works files in Word:

How to open a Works 6.0, a Works 7.0, a Works 8.0, or a Works 9.0 word processing document in Word

Note: applies to Windows 10.

Hope this information helps you. Kindly post back with the updated issue for further assistance.



Thank you.
