How to open MTN file?

The main problem with Match! Database is that the MTN file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open MTN, 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 MTN 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 Match!

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Match! is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Match! into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support MTN files.

Step 2. Create association of Match! with MTN files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MTN file to open in the Match! application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Match! application as the default for handling the MTN file.

Step 3. Update Match! to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Match! program, it is possible that Match! Database requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Crystal Impact GbR website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MTN 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 MTN file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MTN file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MTN or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MTN files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of MTN 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.
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 MTN file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Crystal Impact GbR, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file MTN 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the MTN file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MTN file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MTN to close. However, some background programs may block the MTN file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
