The author considers two convolution integral equations of the second and first kind: \[ \lambda u(t) -\int_0^b k(t-s)u(s)ds = f(t),\quad t\in (0,b),\tag{1} \] where \(k\in L_1(-b,b)\), \(f\in L_1(0,b)\), \(b>0\), \(\lambda = 1,0\). Under some conditions on the kernel \(k\), reducing (1) to a boundary value problem of linear conjugation (a Riemann boundary value problem) for a piecewise analytic vector function with coefficient admitting a factorization (under the same conditions on the kernel), a complete generalization of the Wiener-Hopf method for (1) is given. The coefficient in the resulting linear conjugation problem is a \(2\times 2\) matrix function. For \(\lambda = 1\), the coefficient of the problem admits left and right factorizations for every kernel integrable on \((-b, b)\). For \(\lambda = 0\), some additional conditions are imposed on the kernel along with integrability on \((-b,b)\). Moreover, the right factorization (unlike the left factorization) is found effectively.
