How to open MERLINLICENSE file?

The main problem with Merlin License Format is that the MERLINLICENSE file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open MERLINLICENSE, 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 MERLINLICENSE 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 ProjectWizards Merlin

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ProjectWizards Merlin is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name ProjectWizards Merlin 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 MERLINLICENSE files.

Programs to open MERLINLICENSE file

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

Step 2. Create association of ProjectWizards Merlin with MERLINLICENSE files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MERLINLICENSE file to open in the ProjectWizards Merlin application, but you can set it manually. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ProjectWizards Merlin application as the default for handling the MERLINLICENSE file.

Step 3. Update ProjectWizards Merlin to the latest version

If, however, after binding ProjectWizards Merlin with Merlin License Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MERLINLICENSE 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:

The MERLINLICENSE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MERLINLICENSE file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MERLINLICENSE or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MERLINLICENSE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MERLINLICENSE 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MERLINLICENSE file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MERLINLICENSE 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move MERLINLICENSE to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the MERLINLICENSE file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
