| Full Name | Developer | Category |

| Package Download Profile | N/A | Settings Files |
MLF stands for Package Download Profile, and is associated with XIP files. The MLF file is a text-based file that is created when download packages are created with the Adobe AIR 2 SDK. The contents of an MLF file will include information regarding which files should be included in the package, the size of those files, and the folder hierarchy. This format is specific to the Adobe AIR platform and is used to in order to compile the application code into one file.
Most MLF files are created by developers in order to facilitate consistent builds across different teams, platforms, or regions. Often times, when a developer needs to have the same application or game compiled for multiple platforms or regions, they’ll store all of the appropriate information within an MLF file. Additionally, MLF files are used to track various package settings and features associated with the development.

MLF files are exclusive to Adobe AIR development projects. Other file formats commonly used in software development and platform compilation processes include:
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .MLF) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .MLF extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .MLF file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .MLF extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .MLF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .MLF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .MLF file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .MLF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .MLF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .MLF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
