The MO file is a GNU Gettext Machine Object File. MO (Machine Object) files are compiled, machine-readable PO (Portable Object) files. GNU gettext is the commonly used GNU internationalization and localization library for writing multilingual programs. The format of generated MO files is best described by a picture. The first two words serve identification of the file. The magic number signals GNU MO files. The second word describes current revision of file format, with major and minor revision numbers. Since MO files are binary, they are not human readable like .PO files. However, they may contain recognizable data in a text editor. On Windows, right click MO file then “Open with”>”Choose another app”. Select program and check box “Always use to open .MO files”. To solve problems, associate MO file extension to correct application in Windows Registry. We hope our site is useful and informative about MO file extensions.
