Fixing ACMarket Errors

ACMarket errors usually only occur on mobile devices, but, on occasion, you may be unlucky enough for an error to happen on your desktop. That error kicks up an error message telling you the package cannot be parsed.

There could be a few reasons why you get this message. First off, the APK parser must be able to read a string of characters, symbols, and/or digits buried in the app code; if the string isn’t grammatically correct, the parser can’t read it, and the error is thrown. Other reasons for the error include:

• Incomplete file or bad Download
• Incompatibility with your computer or OS
• Security settings on your computer may be getting in the way of the Download.
• Corrupted file

While this sounds technical, it really is quite easy to fix, so start with the first method and work through until the error is fixed on your system:

Method 1: Check Manifested ACMarket App APK File

This file is created when you modify or customize the ACMarket file to your requirements; for example, you might opt to modify it, so there are no ads. If you do this and save your changes, the manifest file is created, and that could be what has caused the error. So, if you have modified your file, follow these steps:

1. Find the APK file on your computer and open it.
2. Find a file named andriomanifest.xml and open it.
3. Change all the settings back to default and save it.

Also, check the file name – did you change it from the default name? If you did, that could also cause this error. And finally, if you are experienced at coding, take a quick look at the app code to see if you can spot any errors.

Method 2: Corrupted File

If the APK file you downloaded was corrupted, then that will cause the error. The simplest thing to do is delete ACMarket from your computer and start over. Make sure you only download from the official sources as these files have been checked and are clean.

If you opt to download from another source on the internet, you may be risking all kinds of trouble, and not just error messages.

Method 3: Security Settings

Before you download ACMarket, temporarily disable your antivirus and give your firewall permission to allow ACMarket. Alternatively, just disable the firewall but make sure you enable it and your antivirus once ACMarket is successfully installed.

ACMarket has been popular with Android users for some time, and now you can take full advantage of it on your Mac or Windows PC. Download it today and see what you think of this cool alternative app store.
