What is MEGA file?

The file with the extension MEGA is the Data Files file type. It was designed by Megacubo. In addition to this file, the Data Files category includes 1326 related files.

How to open MEGA file?

The most common problem when using Megacubo XML Metafile is that a specific MEGA is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open MEGA, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MEGA 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 Megacubo

The first step is to check if the computer has the Megacubo program installed. To do this, enter the name Megacubo into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MEGA files.

Step 2. Create association of Megacubo with MEGA files

If, despite the installed application, the MEGA file does not start in the Megacubo application, you must create a file 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the MEGA file with the Megacubo program.

Step 3. Update Megacubo to the latest version

If, however, after binding Megacubo with Megacubo XML Metafile there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to MEGA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MEGA file. However, remember that not every infected MEGA 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 MEGA file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MEGA file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MEGA 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move MEGA to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MEGA 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.
