What is MLA file?

The MLA file has been categorized as Document Files. The author of this format is WorshipCenter Software. Document Files consists of 574 similar files. WorshipCenter Pro Document is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is WorshipCenter Pro. This was created by WorshipCenter Software.

How to open MLA file?

An often recurring problem with WorshipCenter Pro Document is that MLA is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that MLA files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MLA 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 WorshipCenter Pro

The first step is to check if the computer has the WorshipCenter Pro program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WorshipCenter Pro in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MLA files.

Programs to open MLA file

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

Step 2. Create association of WorshipCenter Pro with MLA files

If, despite the installed application, the MLA file does not start in the WorshipCenter Pro application, you must create a file 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. 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 WorshipCenter Pro application as the default for handling the MLA file.

Step 3. Update WorshipCenter Pro to the latest version

If, however, after binding WorshipCenter Pro with WorshipCenter Pro Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the WorshipCenter Software page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The MLA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MLA file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MLA file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MLA files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MLA files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MLA file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting WorshipCenter 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 MLA 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 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. It is best to move MLA to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MLA file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
