If you have a Mac, you can open a WebP file in Photoshop by first downloading the ImageMagick software. Once ImageMagick is installed, open the Terminal application and type “convert webp:filename.webp filename.png”. This will convert the WebP file into a PNG file, which can then be opened in Photoshop.

If you need to open a WebP file on a Windows PC, you can use the free GIMP editor. Simply download GIMP and install it on your computer.

PRO TIP: If you are trying to open a WebP file in Photoshop on a Mac, you may experience some difficulties. WebP is a relatively new image format, and it is not yet supported by Photoshop. There are some workaround methods that you can try, but there is no guarantee that they will work.

Then, open the WebP file in GIMP and choose “Export As” from the File menu. Select PNG as the file format and click Export. The PNG file can then be opened in Photoshop.

Photoshop is a powerful image editing program that can be used to create stunning graphics for webpages, logos, and more.
