What is a WB1 file?

WB1 files mostly belong to Adobe Photoshop. WB1 files serve two main functions. The most common type is used as an Adobe Photoshop image file that stores raster image data. This variant is designed for image editing and may include complex image data such as layers.
Alternatively, WB1 files can represent spreadsheet documents created in Quattro Pro. These files hold cell-based data and formulas. To view this type, use compatible spreadsheet software. More details about this usage are available at Corel.
  • Examine the file header or metadata to determine which variant you have.
  • Open the Photoshop variant with Adobe Photoshop or a compatible image viewer.
  • Use appropriate spreadsheet software for the Quattro Pro variant.

    • How can I open a WB1 file?

    You need a suitable software like Adobe Photoshop to open a WB1 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 WB1 file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a WB1 file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    WB1 file extension format:

    Why is it important to know the file format? This is the only way to find out which program to use to open the file. 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. File extension, signature and file format must match; otherwise errors will occur when the file is opened. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our evaluation of the WB1 files looks like this:

    As a file extension, WB1 isn't very common and is mainly used by one program with a specific format. However, the following two file formats are common:
