How to open MPGX file?
The main problem with MPEG Video Format is that the MPGX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file MPGX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MPGX 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 Media Player Classic
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Media Player Classic is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Media Player Classic in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file MPGX.

Remember to download programs supporting MPGX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Media Player Classic with MPGX files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MPGX file still does not use the Media Player Classic 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the MPGX file with the Media Player Classic program.
Step 3. Update Media Player Classic to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Media Player Classic program with the MPEG Video 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 SourceForge.net website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MPGX file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MPGX file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MPGX file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected MPGX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of MPGX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MPGX files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MPGX 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move MPGX to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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 MPGX file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
