How to open LIQUID file?

The most common problem when using Shopify Liquid Template is that a specific LIQUID is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open LIQUID, 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 LIQUID 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 Middleman

In this case, you should first verify that the Middleman application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Middleman in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file LIQUID.

Programs to open LIQUID file

Remember to download programs supporting LIQUID files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Middleman with LIQUID files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the LIQUID file to open in the Middleman application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Middleman application as the default for handling the LIQUID file.

Step 3. Update Middleman to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Middleman program with the Shopify Liquid Template file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Thomas Reynolds website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LIQUID file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LIQUID file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the LIQUID file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected LIQUID files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of LIQUID file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LIQUID files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LIQUID files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the LIQUID file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
