How to open MHP file?

The most common problem when using Mailshift Internet Mail Document is that a specific MHP is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open MHP, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MHP 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 MailShift

In this case, you should first verify that the MailShift application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing MailShift into the operating system search engine. 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 MHP files.

Programs to open MHP file

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

Step 2. Create association of MailShift with MHP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MHP file still does not use the MailShift program, it means no 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. 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 MHP file with the MailShift program.

Step 3. Update MailShift to the latest version

If, despite the association of the MailShift program with the Mailshift Internet Mail Document file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MHP file. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MHP file. Sometimes virus-infected MHP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MHP files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MHP file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MHP 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 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. If possible, you can try to move the MHP file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MHP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MHP 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.
