If you are running a version older than 2020, native WebP support may be limited or absent. In this case, you may need to update your software rather than finding a plugin. 2. Advantages of Using WebP in ACDSee
Note: Some versions require you to download the plugin manually from the ACDSee official website under “Add-ons” or “Plugins.”
Unlike standard plugins found in the "Add-ons" menu, the official WebP plugin is often hosted in the legacy plugins section of the ACDSee website or community forums.
Even with the plugin, things can go wrong. Here are the most frequent problems and their solutions.
If you need help with existing files to WebP?
Some versions of the WebP plugin are Read-Only . This means ACDSee can view the image, but you cannot save an edited image back to the WebP format.
If you've downloaded a image—the modern, compressed format Google created—and tried opening it in an older version of ACDSee, you may have seen a blank thumbnail or an "unsupported format" error.
