How to open MGTHEME file?

The main problem with MacGourmet Theme Format is that the MGTHEME file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open MGTHEME, 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 MGTHEME 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 MacGourmet Deluxe

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that MacGourmet Deluxe is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing MacGourmet Deluxe into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file MGTHEME with MacGourmet Deluxe. Below you will find a list of applications that support MGTHEME files.

Programs to open MGTHEME file

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

Step 2. Create association of MacGourmet Deluxe with MGTHEME files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MGTHEME file to open in the MacGourmet Deluxe application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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 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 MGTHEME file with the MacGourmet Deluxe program.

Step 3. Update MacGourmet Deluxe to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the MacGourmet Deluxe program, it is possible that MacGourmet Theme Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Mariner Software, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

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

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

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to MGTHEME files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MGTHEME file. However, remember that not every infected MGTHEME file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of MGTHEME file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MGTHEME file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Mariner Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MGTHEME files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the MGTHEME file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the MGTHEME file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
