How to open MKZ file?

The main problem with PokerOffice Database Backup is that the MKZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file MKZ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MKZ 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 PokerOffice

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PokerOffice is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PokerOffice in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file MKZ with PokerOffice. Below you will find a list of applications that support MKZ files.

Programs to open MKZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of PokerOffice with MKZ files

If, despite the installed application, the MKZ file does not start in the PokerOffice application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 MKZ file with the PokerOffice application.

Step 3. Update PokerOffice to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the PokerOffice program, it is possible that PokerOffice Database Backup requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PokerOffice.com website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to MKZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MKZ file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected MKZ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of MKZ 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MKZ file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact PokerOffice.com
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file MKZ except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the MKZ file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MKZ to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MKZ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
