How to open SEZ file?

The most common problem when using SEEP/W ZIP Compressed Data Format is that a specific SEZ is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open SEZ, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SEZ 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 SEEP/W

The first step is to check if the computer has the SEEP/W program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SEEP/W in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file SEZ with SEEP/W. Below is a list of programs that support the file SEZ.

Programs to open SEZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of SEEP/W with SEZ files

If, despite the installed application, the SEZ file does not start in the SEEP/W application, you must create a file association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the SEEP/W application as the default for handling the SEZ file.

Step 3. Update SEEP/W to the latest version

If, however, after binding SEEP/W with SEEP/W ZIP Compressed Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the GEO-SLOPE International Ltd. page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The SEZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to SEZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SEZ file. Sometimes virus-infected SEZ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SEZ files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SEZ file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SEZ files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the SEZ file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SEZ file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
