Files with the extension .wbpj: filename.wbpj 2. File directory with the same name: filename_files   In Workbench, it is possible to create an archive file (called \u201cfilename.wbpz\u201d), that groups together all the files of  your project. To reopen the Workbench project that was saved once, it is necessary to have the above two items, so if you send a Workbench project to others, you can easily attach it to an e-mail after archiving.  The following methods will show you how to create and load an archive file in Workbench.  Create a Workbench Archive File 1.Save the Workbench project from File > Save or File > Save As&#8230; A file named \u201cfilename.wbpj\u201d and a directory with the same name, \u201cfilename_files\u201d, are created in the working directory 2.Create an archive file of Workbench project from File > Archive&#8230;      2.1.Specify the archive file save destination, file name, archive type (.wbpz or .zip), and click Save      2.2.Select the Archive Options below, then select Archive                \u2022Result\/solution files                \u2022Imported files external to project directory                \u2022Items in the User_files folder  Read the Workbench Archive File 1.From File > Restore Archive, select the Workbench archive file and click Open 2.Confirm the save destination and file name of the Workbench project, then click Save. The file, \u201cfilename.wbpj\u201d, and the directory with the same name, \u201cfilename_files\u201d, are created in the working directory, and the Workbench project is loaded simultaneously.
