What is a WXD file?

WXD files mostly belong to WITec. WXD files are used mainly to store experimental data.
They come in two distinct variants:

  • Raman Spectroscopy Data: This type holds data from Raman instruments used by WITec Project. It contains spectral readings, calibration details, and spatial mapping information. More info is available at this page.
  • Wave Exchange Data: A less common form serves as a container for audio settings and waveform parameters. This version is related to Winamp and the Yamaha WX5 Wind Synthesizer. See this website for further details.

Usage: Open these files with the correct software. Use WITec’s tools for the Raman spectroscopy files and an appropriate audio/synthesizer application for the Wave Exchange variant.

How to open a WXD file

You need a suitable software like WITec to open a WXD file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your WXD file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a WXD file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

Programs that open and convert WXD files:

  1. WITec

WXD file format:

A file format defines how the data in the file is structured. The initial characters of a file are called signature, sometimes also referred to as "magic bytes". The signature can be used to infer the file format. If the file extension or signature does not match the file format, errors will occur when opening or editing the file. Exact knowledge of the format is therefore important in order to solve problems occurring in files. Below you will find our evaluation of the WXD files:

The WXD file extension is not found very often and is primarily used by a single program. The two most common formats are as follows:

How to solve problems with WXD files

  • Associate the WXD file extension with the correct application.
  • Update your software that should actually open data files. Because only the current version supports the latest WXD file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available WITec update.
  • To make sure that your WXD file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
