What is a WID file?

WID files mostly belong to SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence. * WID files are mainly used as Web Intelligence Documents in environments running SAP BusinessObjects. They hold report queries, layouts, and configuration settings used in business intelligence applications.

When used in BI, these files store and structure data for analytical reports.

They sometimes implement storage methods linked to the WinDev Hyper File Database system.

A minor set of WID files define Windows installer dialogs and other installer data using Microsoft Compound File formats.

FilExt.com tip: Most of these files come with a link to SAP for further details. See the SAP website for additional technical insights.

How to open a WID file

You need a suitable software like SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence to open a WID file.

If you cannot open your WID file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a WID file directly in the browser:.
