The .zip file that you downloaded from the software download portal contains four mass spectral libraries. Thermo Fisher Scientific has converted these libraries to the mzVault format for compatibility with the Compound Discoverer application.

NOTE

NIST 2023 MSMS libraries that have not been converted to the mzVault format are not compatible with the Compound Discoverer application.
