What Is This Tool?
This tool enables you to convert WVE files, which are project files from Wondershare Video Editor, into 7Z archive format. The WVE file contains editable project data while 7Z is a compressed archive format that efficiently stores multiple files with compression and encryption options.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Upload your WVE project file to the conversion tool
-
Select 7Z as the output archive format
-
Optionally choose compression and encryption settings if available
-
Click the convert button to start archiving your project
-
Download the resulting 7Z archive for storage or sharing
Key Features
-
Supports conversion from WVE project files to compressed 7Z archives
-
Preserves editable video editing project metadata within a compact archive
-
Utilizes high compression with LZMA/LZMA2 algorithms for reduced file size
-
Allows secure archiving with strong AES-256 encryption options
-
Supports multi-volume archives for handling large projects or datasets
-
Open format with widespread cross-platform compatibility through 7-Zip
Examples
-
Archive a WVE file for long-term storage, reducing space while preserving editing metadata.
-
Convert a WVE project into a 7Z archive to easily transfer between different computers or collaborators.
Common Use Cases
-
Backing up recent video editing projects to save disk space and secure data
-
Sharing complete editing projects securely without losing timelines or effects
-
Transferring projects between workstations running Wondershare Video Editor
-
Compressing project archives for efficient cloud storage or external drives
Tips & Best Practices
-
Keep all referenced source media files accessible to avoid project breaks
-
Use multi-volume archives when dealing with very large projects
-
Employ encryption to protect sensitive project data during storage or transfer
-
Retain original WVE files alongside archives to allow future editing
-
Verify compatibility with your system's extraction tools before archiving
Limitations
-
WVE files require the original Wondershare/Filmora software to open and edit
-
7Z archives sometimes need third-party software for extraction on some systems
-
Archived projects may become unusable if referenced media files are moved or missing
-
Compression and decompression processes may demand significant CPU and memory resources
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can I open a WVE file directly after converting it to 7Z?
-
No, converting a WVE file to 7Z archives it but does not make it directly playable or editable until extracted and opened again with Wondershare/Filmora software.
-
Why should I archive WVE files in 7Z format?
-
Archiving WVE files in 7Z reduces storage space through compression and enables secure, organized backups while preserving editing projects' metadata.
-
Is 7Z extraction supported on all operating systems?
-
Not all operating systems support 7Z archives natively; typically, third-party tools like 7-Zip are needed, especially for advanced compression features.
