How to open MMDC file?

An often recurring problem with MediaMonkey Device Configuration Format is that MMDC is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that MMDC 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 MMDC 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 MediaMonkey

The first step is to check if the computer has the MediaMonkey program installed. This can be achieved by typing MediaMonkey into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file MMDC with MediaMonkey. Below you will find a list of applications that support MMDC files.

Programs to open MMDC file

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

Step 2. Create association of MediaMonkey with MMDC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MMDC file still does not use the MediaMonkey program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the MediaMonkey application as the default for handling the MMDC file.

Step 3. Update MediaMonkey to the latest version

If, however, after binding MediaMonkey with MediaMonkey Device Configuration Format 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 Ventis Media, Inc. page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The MMDC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MMDC file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MMDC or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected MMDC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MMDC files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MMDC files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Ventis Media help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MMDC 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the MMDC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MMDC file again. However, some background programs may block the MMDC file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
