Open WPH File

The WPH file extension is primarily used in two different file formats; the first is associated with Winphone Fax and the second is a Warp Hack backup file related to Lenovo BIOS. This article will cover the possible formats and ways to open and use files with the WPH extension for both types. It is crucial to identify the nature of the WPH file you have before attempting to open it, as using the wrong method may not work and can even damage the file.

Winphone Fax Profile

Winphone Fax Profile files (also known as Worldphone Internet Fax Profiles) store contact information and settings for sending faxes through the now-discontinued Winphone application. Since Winphone Fax is no longer supported, opening these files might be challenging. However, there are several workarounds to access the contents of these files.

Alternative Faxing Services

You can attempt to import your Winphone Fax Profile into alternative faxing services that support the importation of contact lists. Many email clients that support faxing, such as Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird, allow you to import various types of contact lists, including vCard files (.vcf) See this guide for importing contacts in Outlook and this guide for Thunderbird as examples.

File Conversion and Data Extraction

You can also try converting the WPH file into a different file format that is more commonly supported. In some cases, opening the WPH file with a generic text editor, like Notepad++, may allow you to view its contents and manually copy the contact information to a different application.

Warp Hack Backup File (Lenovo BIOS Update)

WPH files are also used by Lenovo as backup files for BIOS updates. These files contain a backup of the computer's BIOS settings and configurations that can be restored in case of failure during an update.

Restoring BIOS Settings from a WPH File

If you are looking to restore BIOS settings from a WPH file, the process will generally involve using specific BIOS recovery tools provided by Lenovo. You can start by visiting Lenovo Support, inputting your computer's model, and downloading the necessary BIOS recovery files. After following the instructions provided by Lenovo, you should be able to restore the computer's BIOS settings using the WPH file.

WPH File Important Information

Identifying the correct type of WPH file you have will determine the appropriate method for opening or using it. For Winphone Fax Profile files, you may need to explore alternative faxing services or manually extract contact information from the files. On the other hand, Warp Hack Backup Files are specifically for Lenovo BIOS recovery, which should be done using the tools provided by Lenovo. It is essential to apply the correct methods to prevent possible damage to the files or your system.
