CDF-MS files are associated with ClickOnce software application. This file is used by software applications which are started by ClickOnce as a support file.
This file is based on Microsoft technology which allows user to run a program by single clicking on a link available on webpage. Generally CDF-MS file contains application properties. This file is generated for every individual DLL file and it contains digitally signed data regarding various dependencies and assemblies required for running the application. This file is a compiled MANIFEST file which results in faster application of configuration settings and deployment of manifest related with a specific application.
In addition to the problem described above, i.e. the lack of the appropriate application to support the .CDF-MS file, there may be several reasons that cause problems with opening and operation of the data format:
A quite common problem is the lack of application in the appropriate version. Even if you have an application, with the help of which you should open the .CDF-MS file, you may have a problem with it because of its version. Perhaps in previous versions the application has not yet supported the .CDF-MS file, so download the update and check again.
If you have already installed the appropriate application, and it is the correct version, the file may not open correctly, because the operating system does not have information that this program supports the file. So you need to "show" which program the computer should use. To do this:
It also happens that the file you want to open is corrupt and therefore there is no such possibility. In this situation, you should find its different version, or ask a person from whom you got, to send it again.
There may be several reasons why you cannot open the file with .CDF-MS extension. Directly on this website you can find a solution of the most common problem with the .CDF-MS file – that you do not have on your computer the appropriate program to open the file.
