A .WLM file is a CompW Wavelet-Compressed Image, created by Paralelo Computação.

Open with XnViewMP. Available for Linux, Windows, and Mac.

What is a .WLM file?

A .WLM file is a type of picture file that has been made smaller using a special method called wavelet compression. This kind of file is created by a software called Paralelo Computação CompW, which is used to make images take up less space on a computer without losing much quality. However, this software is not available anymore (discontinued).

Even though the .WLM file is a compressed image, it can still be included in documents that work with OLE, which stands for Object Linking and Embedding. This means you can put the image into different types of documents like word processing files or presentations. But, to actually see the image in the document, you need to have the CompW software, which might be difficult since it's discontinued.

If you have a .WLM file and want to open it, there are a few programs that can help you: 1. **XnViewMP**: This is a versatile program that lets you view and manage images. It supports a wide range of file formats, including .WLM files. You can use it to open and view the contents of your .WLM file.

2. **Logipole Konvertor**: Another program that can open .WLM files. It's designed for converting and viewing different image formats, so it can be useful for accessing and converting your .WLM files into more common formats.

3. **Paralelo Computação CompW**: This is the original software that creates .WLM files. However, it's important to note that this software has been discontinued, which means it's no longer being updated or supported. If you already have it installed, you can use it to open .WLM files, but getting a new copy might be challenging.

In summary, if you come across a .WLM file, you can use XnViewMP or Logipole Konvertor to open and view the image. These programs are helpful alternatives since the original CompW software is no longer available.
