Troubleshooting Problems Opening MPCPL Files


Troubles Opening MPCPL Files

Media Player Classic Disappeared

Double-clicking your MPCPL file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open MPCPL File". Customarily, this means that Media Player Classic is not installed on %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your MPCPL file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: If you know of another program that can open your MPCPL file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.


Media Player Classic Requires Update

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Media Player Classic Playlist file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Visit the Open Source website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Media Player Classic. The primary cause of this problem is that your Media Player Classic Playlist file was created by a different (newer) version of Media Player Classic than what's installed.


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


Primarily, problems experienced when opening MPCPL files are due to having the incorrect version of Media Player Classic installed on your computer.


Other Causes of MPCPL File Opening Problems

Although you might already have Media Player Classic or another MPCPL-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Media Player Classic Playlist files. Other MPCPL opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. These issues include:

  • Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for MPCPL
  • Unintentional removal of the description of the MPCPL file inside the Windows Registry
  • Media Player Classic or another MPCPL application experienced a flawed installation
  • MPCPL file corruption
