What is MKE file?
The file with the extension MKE is the Developer Files file type. The creator of this file is Microsoft Corporation. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. Microsoft Windows SDK Make appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use .NET Framework to handle this file. This is a program created by Microsoft Corporation.
How to open MKE file?
The main problem with Microsoft Windows SDK Make is that the MKE file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that MKE files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MKE 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 .NET Framework
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that .NET Framework is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name .NET Framework into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file MKE with .NET Framework. Below you will find a list of applications that support MKE files.
Programs to open MKE file
Remember to download programs supporting MKE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of .NET Framework with MKE files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MKE file to open in the .NET Framework 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 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the .NET Framework application as the default for handling the MKE file.
Step 3. Update .NET Framework to the latest version
If, despite the association of the .NET Framework program with the Microsoft Windows SDK Make 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 Microsoft Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MKE 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MKE file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MKE or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MKE 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 MKE 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MKE file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MKE 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the MKE file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the MKE 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 MKE to close. However, some background programs may block the MKE file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
