However, you can open such files using several other software that allow users to listen to and view media data. To avoid any problems when opening WPL files, you should understand that they don’t actually contain media files. Instead, they store references to audio or video files. By opening a WPL file, you will be playing a list of audio or video files that can even be located in different folders. Essentially, the WPL file is a playlist of songs. This also means that you should not alter the video and audio files contained in the WPL playlist. If you do, the application playing the file won’t locate them.

How do I open WPL files?

1. Adobe Audition

For opening almost all types of audio files, as well as editing and adding effects, we recommend using Adobe Audition. It is a professional audio editor that seamlessly integrates with other Creative Cloud apps, such as Premiere Pro to make content creation a breeze. Supporting Multitrack and Waveform views, you can easily cut, inspect, and enhance the audio tracks. Additionally, it can help restore audio content to make it sound like it was recorded in a pro studio.

2. ZOOM Player MAX Media Player

3. Microsoft Windows Media Player

  1. Open Microsoft Windows Media Player.

  2. Select File in the menu bar. On the drop-down menu that appears, click on Open.

  3. A pop-up window appears where you can browse through your computer’s files. Search through it for the WPL file you want to play.

  4. Select the file and click Open. SPONSORED

A very useful built-in Windows application is none other than Windows Media Player. It allows you to open WPL files within a few clicks, without you needing to install other third-party apps.

4. VLC Media Player

5. AllPlayer Media Player

6. Maxthon 5 browser

Yes, that’s right. You can simply use your browser application to open media files. Of course, certain browsers work better than others and they typically use browser extensions from specific media players, such as VLC Media Player. The Maxthon 5 Browser is one such multi-talented browser you can use to open WPL files. Go to the Maxthon Cloud Browser website and download the latest browser version.

7. Mozilla Firefox

You can also use Mozilla Firefox to open media files. It uses browser extensions from specific media players, such as VLC Media Player. Hence, this multi-talented browser can open WPL files. Go to the Mozilla Firefox Browser website and download the latest browser version. 

8. Convert WPL to M3U

You can use Windows Media Player to convert your Windows Media Player-generated playlists (the WPL files) into M3U playlists. The M3U playlists can then be opened by a wider range of media players, even those who can’t open WPL files. Using these useful options, you’ll no longer have any issues opening WPL files.
