A .WER file captures error information for application and OS crashes. It is generated by Windows Error Reporting services. The WER file helps identify the problem causing crashes. These files are uncommon but can be data files. WER files are supported by Windows, Mac, and Linux. They can be found on desktops and mobile devices. Most users do not ordinarily have WER files.
WER files belong to data and text file categories. You can open them on Windows, Linux and Mac. Popular programs are Notepad++, PSPad and Sublime Text.
Microsoft developed the WER file format. Windows likely generated the file. To open a WER file, install appropriate software. Associate WER files with this software in Windows Registry. If this does not work, the cause may differ.
