Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community and for your interest in Windows 10.

I can understand, how frustrating it can be, when things don't work as expected.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused.

I'd be glad to help you.

Please answer the query, mentioned below:

  • Do you have Works installed on the new PC? If not, do you have Word installed on the new PC?

WPS indicates a Works word processor format.

If you have Office suite installed on the computer, you may open Word and try to access it within the Word application.

  •  Open Word, then File - Open and browse to the .wps file.

Let's try to refer the below article to know how to access Works files in Word:

How to open a Works 6.0, a Works 7.0, a Works 8.0, or a Works 9.0 word processing document in Word

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/315757

Note: applies to Windows 10.

Hope this information helps you. Kindly post back with the updated issue for further assistance.

Thank you.

I need to open a WPS document and when I go to Office Word 2013 it won't open.  I tried to update  but says I need an update to Microsoft converter and when I update it says page no longer available.  How do I open these type of documents with Windows 10?

The link https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/315757 no longer works and neither does searching for KB 315757.  Can you please fix this and provide the software to enable me to open WPS documents in Word 2016?  Thank you.

Microsoft has fixed the link and provided software to view Works 6-9 files in Word 2016.  See http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/confirmation.aspx?FamilyID=bf41401e-70fa-465d-ae2e-cf44dbf05297.  Once you download and install that, you can open the files with Word 2016.

Thank you for fixing this Microsoft!

Downloaded and tried it with Microsoft Office Home and Student 2016. No luck. Any other possible fixes, other than moving to Mac?
