WVD file format:

Each file has a definite file format, that is, how the stored data is arranged in the file. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. However, different programs can use the same file extension, and file extensions can be assigned incorrectly. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our evaluation of the WVD files looks like this:

The WVD file extension is not common and includes various formats for various programs. But the following two file formats are common:

30% of all WVD files use the same file format, which can be identified by the letters "WVD" at the beginning. These files are binary files, so they do not contain text, but only cryptic characters. The average file size is 2 KB with most files being between 2.8 KB and 2.9 KB in size. The file type is a fairly new file format. The file name device.wvd or WVD.wvd is characteristic of these files. These files are often associated with samsung, google, emulator, chromecdm, android and aosp.
30% of all WVD files use the ZIP format, so multiple files are compressed and stored together in one WVD file. A WVD file contains 1 to 60 files, the average being 2. Tip: If you rename the file ending to .zip and then double-click it, you see the included files and images. A typical file size is 900 KB. The files contain the following words: NUCX$ and xmlNUN. Files like these have the following tags: well and view.

All other WVD files (40%) have no consistent format, such as Wang Virtual Disk image and KNON. Often described as mcintall, partner or mcroi. If you want to find out what your WVD file contains, drag and drop it onto this page.
