The WIZ file extension is associated with Microsoft Office software and is a type of wizard input file. It contains a template designed to provide users with a quick way to create a specified type of document that is made up out of text, graphics, tables and other elements. The Microsoft Office Suite comes pre-loaded with several of these.wiz files, which the user can customize to their exact requirements.
Features of a WIZ File
A WIZ file may include several instructions and illustrations on how to create the document in question, as well as options for helping the user select formatting and editing choices when it comes to filling in content. It is typically used to provide a faster and easier way for creating cover letters, invoices, newsletters, coupon booklets and other text-based documents.
The header information and contents of the.WIZ file also tell the application what types of different elements should be included within the generated document. Text, font selection, image placement, and even macros are all specifications found in this kind of file. Similar formats include .DOT, .WBT, and .DOTX.
How Are WIZ Files Used?
These types of files are usually opened using the type of program that created them and are not meant to be edited or manipulated directly by humans. For example, if there is an invoice template in Microsoft Word, which has been save as a.wiz file, it can be opened using Word but it cannot be edited using any text editors. Typically once the document has been filled in with the necessary content, it is saved as an internal format such as.DOCX or.RTF.
.WIZ files are used to save time when creating documents that require regular formatting or elements. For example, an invoice may have a set design with specific placement instructions for company logos or contact details; using a template with the right specifications can save precious time when producing batches of these documents.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .WIZ) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .WIZ extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .WIZ file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .WIZ extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .WIZ extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .WIZ file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .WIZ file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .WIZ file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .WIZ file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .WIZ file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
