Programs to open M09 file
Remember to download programs supporting M09 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Money with M09 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the M09 file still does not use the Microsoft Money program, it means no association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the M09 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the M09 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the M09 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected M09 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the M09 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged M09 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file M09 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move M09 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the M09 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 M09 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
