Opening a WDC File
The WDC file type is primarily associated with DVD Creator Free.
What is a WDC file?
WDC files mostly belong to DVD Creator Free. WDC files are not a single file type. They are project files that store settings and data specific to different software tools.
For instance, DVD Creator project files use XML to save DVD menu layouts, timeline data, and media arrangements. This format is best accessed with DVD Creator Free. More details can be found on the DVD Creator site.
Other WDC file variants include:Wondershare DemoCreator files – hold demo video project settings. Visit Wondershare for further information. WebDev Component files – used within the WinDev suite to manage elements for building web applications. More details are available at WinDev. K-Soft Windows-Control data files – keep configuration and control data for Windows applications from K-Soft. WebEx recording / Wireless Device Configuration files – based on Microsoft Compound formats, these store meeting recordings or settings for wireless devices, with usage linked to WebEx. See WebEx for additional insights. FilExt.com tip: You should open a WDC file using the native program that created it to ensure proper display and full functionality.

WDC file format:
Every file has a defined file format, i.e. how the data is arranged in the file. Often, the file format can be deduced from the file extension or the initial bytes (called the signature). However, different programs can use the same file extension. Furthermore, a file extension can be renamed incorrectly and double-clicking on it will then display an error when it is opened. Exact knowledge of the format is therefore important in order to solve problems occurring in files. Our evaluation of the WDC files is as follows:
The WDC file extension is rather rarely used and includes different formats for the applicable programs. The two most popular formats are as follows:
- 20% of all WDC files use the popular XML file format. The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple text-based format for representing structured information: documents, webpages, data, configuration, books, transactions, invoices, and much more. XML defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. The contents of these files are partially readable with a text editor. The file size is in the range of 60 KB to 640 KB. The keywords <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>, <DVDCreatorFree Version="1.1">, <ProjectOptionMgr>, <MediaSr and <MediaSrcMgr> are typical for these files. The file name DC Project 1.wdc is characteristic of these files. Such files are related to movie and video.
- 10% of all WDC files have the same signature 57 00 6F 00 6E 00 64 00 65. These files contain neither text nor words, but only data. A typical file size is 9 MB. The following keywords are characteristic: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>, WonderShare DemoCreatorV2.0 and <DemoCreate Version="3.5.2" Rec. Files like these have the following tags: process, inventory and upload.
All the rest of the WDC files (70%) have different formats, often e.g. DOC, PCS and Soft. If you want to find out what your WDC file contains, drag and drop it onto this page.
