How to open MSHDB file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MSHDB 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.

Programs to open MSHDB file

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

Step 2. Create association of Ministry Scheduler Pro with MSHDB files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MSHDB file still does not use the Ministry Scheduler Pro program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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 MSHDB file with the Ministry Scheduler Pro program.

Step 3. Update Ministry Scheduler Pro to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Ministry Scheduler Pro program, it is possible that Ministry Scheduler Pro Database requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Rotunda Software website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The MSHDB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MSHDB file contents when downloading or copying. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MSHDB file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MSHDB files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MSHDB 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.
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 option of recovering data from damaged MSHDB files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Rotunda Software help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MSHDB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move MSHDB to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MSHDB file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MSHDB file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
