Convert a file to MQP
To convert other file formats to the "Proprietary Update Package" file type, you need software like mMedica or a similar tool.
About MQP files
The .MQP extension usually represents one of two highly specific, incompatible formats: a medical system update package for mMedica or a financial quote layout for MetaStock.
For medical users, this file is a proprietary container used to patch the mMedica database. The primary difficulty is that these files often exceed 100MB and are binary-locked; you cannot simply double-click them to view the update logs or contents without the host application running. For financial traders, the .MQP (Money Quote Pro) file stores stock watchlists and layout configurations. Traders frequently run into issues when migrating to modern platforms like TradingView or Excel, as the data is trapped in a legacy vendor format that does not natively export to CSV or XLSX.
Practical Conversion Advice:
For Inspection: Convert to TXT to attempt string extraction. This allows you to view readable headers, version numbers, or stock symbols hidden inside the binary code.
For Archiving: Since these are proprietary formats, wrap them in a ZIP or convert to PDF (via screenshots of the original app) to preserve the visual state.

The MQP Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our MQP converter.
