How to open MTM file?

An often recurring problem with MultiTracker Module is that MTM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open MTM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MTM 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 XimpleMOD

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that XimpleMOD is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name XimpleMOD 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 MTM files.

Programs to open MTM file

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

Step 2. Create association of XimpleMOD with MTM files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MTM file still does not use the XimpleMOD program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MTM file with the XimpleMOD application.

Step 3. Update XimpleMOD to the latest version

If, despite the association of the XimpleMOD program with the MultiTracker Module file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MTM file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 MTM file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MTM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of MTM file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MTM file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MTM 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.
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. Copying the MTM file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the MTM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MTM 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.
