Open an existing project

To open an existing MegAlign Pro project (.msa):

Do any of the following:

• From the Welcome tab, click Open Project on the left. Then use the options on the right to Open alignment project or open a recent document.

• Drag an .msa file from the file explorer or desktop and drop it on an empty MegAlign Pro project window or tab.

• Choose File > Open from the menu.

• Click the Open a file tool ().

• Press Ctrl/Cmd+O.

*Note: If you moved or renamed any of the sequences prior to reopening a project, you may be prompted to supply the new name(s) or navigate to the location(s) of those sequences.

The following video (which launches, by design, at the 3:05 minute mark) demonstrates how to open existing MegAlign Pro and classic MegAlign projects.
