Microsoft provides a free file called WorksConv.exe that is compatible with Microsoft Word 2000 and later, allowing you to open Microsoft Works 6.0 to 9.0 documents.

To open older .wps documents created with Microsoft Works 4.0 or 4.5, Microsoft provides Wks4Converter_en-US.msi.

We recommend downloading and installing both of these files.

Microsoft Word 2013 is capable of opening Microsoft Works 6.0 to 9.0 documents by default. However, you still need to download and install the Wks4Converter_en-US.msi file to open Microsoft Works 4.0 or 4.5 documents.

Once these files are downloaded, follow the steps listed below.

  2. Double-click the WorksConv.exe file and follow the prompts to install it. Then, double-click the Wks4Converter_en-US.msi file and follow the prompts to install as well.
  3. After installing both files, open Microsoft Word.
  4. In Microsoft Word, click File and then click Open. If there is no File menu, click the Microsoft Office button in the top-left of the Word window, then click Open.

  1. In the Open window, in the File type drop-down menu or the unlabeled drop-down menu next to File name are: Works 4.x (*.wps), Works 6-9 Document (*.wps), and Works 6.0 (*.wps).

  3. Browse to the location of the Works file you want to open, select the file, then click Open.

After I open the file, it's not formatted properly

Depending on the Microsoft Works file, it may look strange because formatting is not converted correctly. If this occurs, try opening the file as a different Works version. If this does not work, you'll have to change the formatting manually in Word if you want it to display correctly.
