Summary: This article focuses on general Wiener--Hopf operators given as $W = P_2 A|_{P_1 X}$ where $X,Y$ are Banach spaces, $P_1 \in \mathcal L(X) , P_2 \in \mathcal L(Y)$ are any projectors and $A \in \mathcal L(X,Y)$ is boundedly invertible. It presents conditions for $W$ to be equivalently reducible to a Wiener--Hopf operator in a symmetric space setting where $X = Y$ and $P_1 = P_2$. The results and methods are related to the so-called Wiener--Hopf factorization through an intermediate space and the construction of generalized inverses of $W$ in terms of factorizations of $A$.
