MPROJ File Won't Play - How to Convert .mproj to .mp4?

What is a .mproj File? Here is a One-Minute Read!

A file type with .mproj extension is actually not a real video file, but an exclusive project file created by Mine-imator and Windows Movie Maker 2023 (non-Microsoft version). It only records references to the various resources and settings used in your movie creation or editing, such as the transitions, effects, original video and audio materials, characters, items, assets, and other elements.

That is to say, the MPROJ file is just a half-finished project that has not been rendered as a real playable video file yet. This is the crucial reason why you failed to open, play, edit, convert or upload MPROJ file with any 3rd party program. Mine-imator or Windows Movie Maker 2023 is the only workable MPROJ to MP4 converter. Next, I'll separately illustrate how to convert MPROJ to MP4 with the two applications in a correct method.

Attention: Please ensure that the MPROJ file is produced on your own computer. If your MPROJ file is shared by friends or downloaded from the Internet, the following guide may not work properly because the original resources, elements, paths are completely changed.
