This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MM4 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 Microsoft Windows

Programs to open MM4 file
Remember to download programs supporting MM4 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with MM4 files
If, despite the installed application, the MM4 file does not start in the Microsoft Windows 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Windows application as the default for handling the MM4 file.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Windows program with the Microsoft Windows Word Processing Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MM4 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The MM4 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MM4 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MM4 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MM4 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of MM4 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MM4 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MM4 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move MM4 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MM4 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 MM4 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MM4 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
