The MSMESSAGESTORE ( .MSG) file extension is a proprietary message database file format used by certain Microsoft Windows applications such as Microsoft Mail and Outlook Express. It's primarily used to store conversations and other message information in an organized format.
The.MSG files are binary files stored in a certain format with plain-text sections and binary components, collectively known as the Outlook Storage Format. This format supports multiple mail formats and metadata, including address fields, HTML formatting, attachments and exchangeable image files. It allows email messages to be viewed within the native application and then imported into another application such as Microsoft Exchange Server.

Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .MSMESSAGESTORE) 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 .MSMESSAGESTORE 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 .MSMESSAGESTORE 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 .MSMESSAGESTORE 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 .MSMESSAGESTORE extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .MSMESSAGESTORE file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .MSMESSAGESTORE 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 .MSMESSAGESTORE file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .MSMESSAGESTORE file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .MSMESSAGESTORE file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
