Microsoft Office For Mac Query appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Mac OS.

How to open DECK file?
The most common problem when using Microsoft Office For Mac Query is that a specific DECK is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open DECK, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DECK file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Microsoft Office
The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Office program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Microsoft Office in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DECK with Microsoft Office. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open DECK files.
Programs to open DECK file
Remember to download programs supporting DECK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Office with DECK files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DECK file to open in the Microsoft Office application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DECK file with the Microsoft Office application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Office to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Office program with the Microsoft Office For Mac Query file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DECK file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The DECK file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the DECK file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DECK file. However, remember that not every infected DECK file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the DECK files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DECK files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DECK except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DECK to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the DECK file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DECK to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
