How to open MTZ file?

An often recurring problem with MIUI Theme is that MTZ is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file MTZ 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 MTZ 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 Viewpoint Media Compressor

The first step is to check if the computer has the Viewpoint Media Compressor program installed. This can be achieved by typing Viewpoint Media Compressor into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MTZ files.

Programs to open MTZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Viewpoint Media Compressor with MTZ files

If, despite the installed application, the MTZ file does not start in the Viewpoint Media Compressor application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 MTZ file with the Viewpoint Media Compressor application.

Step 3. Update Viewpoint Media Compressor to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Viewpoint Media Compressor program with the MIUI Theme file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Viewpoint Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MTZ 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the MTZ file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MTZ file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected MTZ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MTZ files changes over time. 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 option of recovering data from damaged MTZ files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact MIUI
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MTZ 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 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. It is best to move MTZ to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MTZ to close. 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.
