How to open IZE file?

The most common problem when using IZArc Archive is that a specific IZE is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that IZE files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IZE file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install IZArc

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that IZArc is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name IZArc into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support IZE files.

Programs to open IZE file

Remember to download programs supporting IZE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of IZArc with IZE files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the IZE file to open in the IZArc application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the IZE file with the IZArc program.

Step 3. Update IZArc to the latest version

If, despite the association of the IZArc program with the IZArc Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Ivan Zahariev website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IZE file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the IZE file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file IZE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected IZE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the IZE file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular IZE file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use IZArc help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted IZE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the IZE file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the IZE file again. However, some background programs may block the IZE file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
