Once you’ve downloaded and installed the plugin, open up Photoshop and go to ‘File > Open’. In the file browser, select the WebP file that you want to open, and then click ‘Open’. The file will now open in Photoshop – easy!

PRO TIP: When trying to open a WebP file in Photoshop, you may receive the following message: “Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop.”

This is because WebP files are not currently compatible with Photoshop. In order to open and view a WebP file in Photoshop, you will need to first convert it to a different file format such as JPG or PNG.
