How to open MPPZ file?
An often recurring problem with MagicPlot Project Format is that MPPZ is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that MPPZ 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 MPPZ 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 MagicPlot
The first step is to check if the computer has the MagicPlot program installed. This can be achieved by typing MagicPlot into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support MPPZ files.
Programs to open MPPZ file
Remember to download programs supporting MPPZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MagicPlot with MPPZ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MPPZ file to open in the MagicPlot application, but you can set it manually. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MPPZ file with the MagicPlot application.
Step 3. Update MagicPlot to the latest version
If, however, after binding MagicPlot with MagicPlot Project Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Magicplot Systems, LLC website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MPPZ file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The MPPZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to MPPZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MPPZ file. However, remember that not every infected MPPZ 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 MPPZ file. 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 ability to automatically repair MPPZ file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Magicplot Systems help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MPPZ 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.
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 MPPZ to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the MPPZ 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 MPPZ to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MPPZ file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
