To configure WPS Office as the default office suite on Windows, you need to set file type defaults so that documents Word files, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations open automatically in WPS Office’s three core apps. Begin by ensuring that WPS Office is properly set up. If it is not yet installed, download the latest version from the official WPS Office website, execute the setup file, and follow the on-screen instructions to finish installation.



Once WPS Office is installed, access the Windows menu and click on the gear icon. Navigate to Apps, then select Default apps from the menu on the left. Keep scrolling to find the section labeled Assign apps to file types. Here,  [[https://www.wps-wp.com/|wps下载]] Windows shows a table of common file extensions along with the current default program associated with each one. Identify the file types you want to associate with WPS Office, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint file extensions.



For each file type, tap the assigned app listed next to the extension. A menu of programs will appear. Look for WPS Writer for Word documents, WPS Spreadsheets for Excel files, and WPS Presentation for PowerPoint files. Select the correct WPS component for each extension. If you do not see WPS applications listed, choose See more apps at the bottom of the dropdown and then choose Look for an app in the Store. If that is unsuccessful, go back to Default Apps and scroll down to Set defaults by protocol. Ensure that any related protocols such as URL handlers are not causing conflicts, and verify that WPS Office was properly configured.



Alternatively, you can context-click any document file, such as a .Word file, and pick Open with from the right-click menu. Then, select Choose another app. Ensure you check the box that says Always use this app to open.docx files before clicking Confirm. Follow the same steps each file type you wish to assign to WPS. This method is useful if you prefer to handle file types individually rather than through the System Settings.



After setting the file associations, it is a wise practice to check the results. Open a few documents of multiple extensions to confirm they open in the correct WPS Office application. If any files still open in another program, go back to Default Apps and {ensure you did not miss|check that you haven’t overlooked|confirm all) any file extensions.
