Programs to open MB2 file

Remember to download programs supporting MB2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of McMyAdmin with MB2 files

If, despite the installed application, the MB2 file does not start in the McMyAdmin application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the MB2 file with the McMyAdmin program.

Step 3. Update McMyAdmin to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the McMyAdmin program, it is possible that McMyAdmin Backup Archive Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the CubeCoders Limited website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MB2 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to MB2 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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 MB2 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected MB2 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MB2 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MB2 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MB2 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move MB2 to a different directory.
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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MB2 file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
