Importing a Profile
Learn how to import a .wlp server profile into wLauncher, either manually or automatically.
Importing a Profile
wLauncher allows you to import pre-configured .wlp server profiles, making setup quick and easy. You can import these profiles manually through the UI or simply by opening the file directly.
Manual Import
To import a profile manually:
- Open wLauncher.
- Click New Profile.
- Select Import Profile.
- Choose the
.wlpfile you want to import. - Click Import Profile or double-click the file.
- The profile will now appear on your wLauncher home screen.
Manual import is helpful if you want to review your available profiles before selecting one to load.
Automatic Import
If wLauncher is installed, .wlp files can be opened directly to import them automatically.
To use automatic import:
- Download or receive a
.wlpprofile file. - Open the file by double-clicking it or selecting “Open with wLauncher.”
- wLauncher will launch (if not already running) and import the profile in the background.
This is the fastest way to get a profile into wLauncher. You don’t even need to open the app manually.
Profile File Behavior
.wlp files are encrypted to protect server information and configuration values. Modifying these files is not supported and will result in failure to import.
Do not attempt to edit
.wlp files manually. Altered files will be treated as corrupted and cannot be imported.Troubleshooting
| Issue | Suggested Fix |
|---|---|
| File doesn't open automatically | Ensure .wlp is associated with wLauncher. Try opening from the launcher manually. |
| Error: “Corrupted file” | Do not edit .wlp files. Re-download a clean copy. |
| Nothing happens on import | Make sure wLauncher is up to date and restart it. |
If you're sharing a profile, simply send the
.wlp file—recipients can import it automatically with no setup required.Edit on GitHub
