It was released by National Instruments Corporation.

How to open MS14 file?

An often recurring problem with NI Multisim Circuit Design Format is that MS14 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open MS14, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MS14 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 NI Multisim

In this case, you should first verify that the NI Multisim application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name NI Multisim into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MS14 files.

Programs to open MS14 file

Remember to download programs supporting MS14 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of NI Multisim with MS14 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MS14 file to open in the NI Multisim 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 NI Multisim application as the default for handling the MS14 file.

Step 3. Update NI Multisim to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the NI Multisim program, it is possible that NI Multisim Circuit Design Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the National Instruments Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MS14 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 suggests truncating the MS14 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. 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 MS14 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MS14 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of MS14 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MS14 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MS14 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 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 MS14 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MS14 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
