Webp ( pronounced weppy )is an new images format which was developed by Google . The Webp image format is still in development  , which is why it has not been much popular with computer users . Almost every operating system does not have the ability to open Webp files natively .

In any case if you are downloading images from Google services , like screenshots of apps from the Google play store . You will not be able to open the screenshots on your windows computer . The reason being windows does not include the codec required to decode Webp images .
