Programs to open MWI file
Remember to download programs supporting MWI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Payroll Software with MWI files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MWI file still does not use the Payroll Software program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Payroll Software application as the default for handling the MWI file.
Step 3. Update Payroll Software to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Payroll Software program, it is possible that Medlin Payroll Software Invoice Layout Information requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Medlin Accounting website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MWI 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 MWI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to MWI files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MWI file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MWI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MWI files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MWI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Medlin Accounting, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MWI 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move MWI to a different directory.
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.
