How to open MBB file?

The most common problem when using Kodak EasyShare Data Format is that a specific MBB is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open MBB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MBB 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 ManaBook

The first step is to check if the computer has the ManaBook program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ManaBook in it.

Programs to open MBB file

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

Step 2. Create association of ManaBook with MBB files

If, despite the installed application, the MBB file does not start in the ManaBook application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 MBB file with the ManaBook program.

Step 3. Update ManaBook to the latest version

If, however, after binding ManaBook with Kodak EasyShare Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the ManaBook Software Inc. page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to MBB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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 MBB file. However, remember that not every infected MBB 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 MBB files changes over time. 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 MBB files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Kodak
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MBB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the MBB 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MBB file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MBB file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
