Programs to open MUP file

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

Step 2. Create association of Music Publisher with MUP files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MUP file to open in the Music Publisher application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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 MUP file with the Music Publisher application.

Step 3. Update Music Publisher to the latest version

If, however, after binding Music Publisher with Music Publisher Score there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Braeburn Software website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MUP file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MUP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MUP 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 MUP file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MUP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Braeburn Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MUP files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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. If possible, you can try to move the MUP file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
