What is a WRF file

WRF files mostly belong to WebEx Player by Cisco. A WRF file is a video recording created by WebEx videoconferencing software. WebEx Player for Windows and macOS can play or edit the video recording of a meeting saved in a WRF file. Such a video can be converted to common formats like MP4 which is supported by most video players. A Hancom Write (previously ThinkFree Write) word processor uses a different type of WRF file to save a text document.

How can I open a WRF file?

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

Programs that open and convert WRF files:

WRF format details:

To view or edit WRF files you need to know the file format, because it determines how the data in this file is stored. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our examination of the WRF files comes to the following conclusion:

The WRF file type mainly uses a defined WRF format. The file formats most commonly found in WRF files are:

98% of all WRF files are WebEx Recording files. These files contain neither text nor words, but only data. Most of these files are 1 MB to 80 MB in size. The file type was developed only in the last few years. The keywords WOTF are typical for these files. Such files sometimes refer to training, session, demo, order, introduction, overview, lecture, meeting, review, entry, video and flow.
1% of all WRF files are Winlog Raster File bitmap files. If you open these files in a text editor, you will see only illegible characters. The file size is in the range of 950 KB to 1 MB.

All other WRF files (1%) have no uniform format. Just click the "Choose your .wrf file to analyze" button on this page to find out what your WRF file is.

How to solve problems with WRF files

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