MRK Troubleshooting


Typical MRK Opening Challenges

Missing Microsoft Notepad

If you attempt to load your MRK file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open MRK Files". Customarily, this means that Microsoft Notepad is not installed on %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your MRK with Microsoft Notepad, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: Another MRK-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Wrong Version of Microsoft Notepad is Installed

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a DPOF Auto Print Order File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. If you do not have the proper version Microsoft Notepad (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. This issue mainly occurs when your DPOF Auto Print Order File file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Notepad than you have on your PC.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of MRK file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening MRK files are due to having the wrong version of Microsoft Notepad installed.
