How to open MNTR file?

The most common problem when using XANSYS Data Format is that a specific MNTR is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that MNTR 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 MNTR 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 ANSYS Workbench platform

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ANSYS Workbench platform is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name ANSYS Workbench platform 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 MNTR with ANSYS Workbench platform. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MNTR files.

Programs to open MNTR file

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

Step 2. Create association of ANSYS Workbench platform with MNTR files

If, despite the installed application, the MNTR file does not start in the ANSYS Workbench platform 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. 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 ANSYS Workbench platform application as the default for handling the MNTR file.

Step 3. Update ANSYS Workbench platform to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ANSYS Workbench platform program with the XANSYS Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the ANSYS Inc. website and install the latest version.

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

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

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the MNTR file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MNTR file. However, remember that not every infected MNTR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MNTR file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MNTR files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MNTR 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the MNTR file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MNTR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MNTR file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
