How to open MFT file?
An often recurring problem with MediaFACE Project Template is that MFT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open MFT, 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 MFT 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 MediaFACE
In this case, you should first verify that the MediaFACE application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name MediaFACE in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MFT files.
Programs to open MFT file
Remember to download programs supporting MFT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MediaFACE with MFT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MFT file still does not use the MediaFACE 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the MFT file with the MediaFACE program.
Step 3. Update MediaFACE to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the MediaFACE program, it is possible that MediaFACE Project Template requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the NEATO website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MFT 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. This suggests truncating the MFT file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MFT file. However, remember that not every infected MFT file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of MFT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MFT files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Neato help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MFT 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the MFT file to another location.
This problem usually affects 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the MFT file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
