How to open MG2 file?
An often recurring problem with Band-in-a-Box Song is that MG2 is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that MG2 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MG2 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.

Programs to open MG2 file
Remember to download programs supporting MG2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Band-in-a-Box with MG2 files
If, despite the installed application, the MG2 file does not start in the Band-in-a-Box application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 MG2 file with the Band-in-a-Box program.
Step 3. Update Band-in-a-Box to the latest version
If, however, after binding Band-in-a-Box with Band-in-a-Box Song 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 PG Music Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MG2 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MG2 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 MG2 file. However, remember that not every infected MG2 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 MG2 file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MG2 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting PG Music Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MG2 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the MG2 file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MG2 to close. However, some background programs may block the MG2 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
