How to Open a .MDR File

Files saved with the file extension MDR are modem report files used by FaxTalk software programs, especially with FaxTalk Modem Doctor, an included troubleshooting tool inside the program. MDR files contain information which is sent to FaxTalk’s technical support team, and contains information about any issues or problems you may encounter when using the software. The files rarely contain any data which is useful to you as a user, but you can open the files if you are curious to see descriptions of information transmitted by your FaxTalk software.
