How to open MPZIP file?

The main problem with Multisim Pack Format is that the MPZIP file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file MPZIP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MPZIP 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 Multisim

The first step is to check if the computer has the Multisim program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Multisim in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file MPZIP with Multisim. Below you will find a list of applications that support MPZIP files.

Programs to open MPZIP file

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

Step 2. Create association of Multisim with MPZIP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MPZIP file still does not use the Multisim program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MPZIP file with the Multisim application.

Step 3. Update Multisim to the latest version

If, however, after binding Multisim with Multisim Pack Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MPZIP 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to MPZIP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 MPZIP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MPZIP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MPZIP files changes over time. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MPZIP file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MPZIP 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. Copying the MPZIP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MPZIP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
