How to open QML file?

An often recurring problem with Quicken DOS Data is that QML is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open QML, 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 QML 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 Quicken

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Quicken is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Quicken in it. 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 QML files.

Programs to open QML file

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

Step 2. Create association of Quicken with QML files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the QML file still does not use the Quicken 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the QML file with the Quicken application.

Step 3. Update Quicken to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Quicken program, it is possible that Quicken DOS Data requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Intuit Inc. website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the QML file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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 QML file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected QML files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the QML files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular QML file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Intuit Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file QML 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. It is best to move QML to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the QML file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the QML file again. 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.
