Webp Photoshop Plug In

In this tutorial we are looking how to open WebP files with Windows Photo Viewer and Photoshop. WebP initial release was 2010 but now you can see it to be used more often. WebP is developed by Google, and Google says that it is 26% smaller in size compared to PNG:s, and lossy images are 25-34% smaller than JPEG images, and it supports transparency just like PNG. WebP files doesn't affect your life at all until you save image from web to your computer and see that it is .webp file. Because WebP isn't supported by all browsers yet, websites has to have JPEG/PNG fallback and offer those images to user, if it sees that your browser doesn't support WebP.

Installing WebP codec for Windows Photo Viewer

1. Download WebP codec for windows from this link https://storage.googleapis.com/downloads.webmproject.org/releases/webp/WebpCodecSetup.exe . After downloading, start setup. Setup is really straight forward. Just hit next next next.

Just close Photoshop, download the CS5/6 version from the site, save it in the plug-ins folder (Applications⁩ ⁨Adobe Photoshop CC 2019⁩⁩ ⁨Plug-ins⁩ ⁨Save WebPFormat.plugin here). Then you'll need to set the default application for.webp files to Photoshop. Anyway, you have to copy the plug-in file inside the plug-in directory you can find in C:/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop CC/Plug-ins, restart Photoshop and you should be able to open webp files. Note that you have to check what version of Photoshop you are using (32-bit or 64-bit) and use the correct version of the plug-in for each case.

2. By default WebP files are assigned to Chrome. So you want to right click .webp file and go to Open With -> Windows Photo viewer

3. If you want to always open .webp files with Windows Photo Viewer. From right click go to Open With -> Choose another app. Select Windows Photo Viewer and check Always use this app to open .webp files.
