How to open MIZ file?
An often recurring problem with Winamp Compressed Midi is that MIZ is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open MIZ, 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 MIZ 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 Winamp
The first step is to check if the computer has the Winamp program installed. To do this, enter the name Winamp into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file MIZ.
Programs to open MIZ file
Remember to download programs supporting MIZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Winamp with MIZ files
If, despite the installed application, the MIZ file does not start in the Winamp application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MIZ file with the Winamp application.
Step 3. Update Winamp to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Winamp program with the Winamp Compressed Midi file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Radionomy page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MIZ 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 MIZ file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 MIZ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MIZ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MIZ 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MIZ file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MIZ 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move MIZ to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the MIZ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MIZ to close. However, some background programs may block the MIZ file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
