The Microsoft Media Catalog file format (.mmc) is used by Microsoft Clip Gallery. The .mmc extension indicates a data file rather than a document. These files are specifically for storing Clip Gallery media catalogs on Windows platforms.
The Microsoft Clip Gallery program is the most common tool for handling .mmc files. However, some Microsoft Office programs can also open .mmc files if Clip Gallery is not available.
To open an .mmc file, you typically need software compatible with the Windows system. The Microsoft Media Catalog format was created by Microsoft to organize digital photos and media in their Clip Gallery application.
When you encounter an unknown .mmc file, start by trying to open it with Clip Gallery. If that doesn’t work, try other Microsoft Office programs. Finally, there are alternative .mmc file viewer programs you could install to access the file contents.
Knowing what .mmc file types represent allows proper programs to be used for opening them. The .mmc extension is associated with the Microsoft Clip Gallery application and can store catalogs of media like images and videos. Learning about an extension helps select suitable software for access.
