How to open BZ1 file?

The most common problem when using WinTOTAL Automatic Backup is that a specific BZ1 is not associated with the program. This causes the file BZ1 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BZ1 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 WinTOTAL

The first step is to check if the computer has the WinTOTAL program installed. To do this, enter the name WinTOTAL into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file BZ1.

Programs to open BZ1 file

Remember to download programs supporting BZ1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WinTOTAL with BZ1 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BZ1 file to open in the WinTOTAL application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BZ1 file with the WinTOTAL program.

Step 3. Update WinTOTAL to the latest version

If, however, after binding WinTOTAL with WinTOTAL Automatic Backup 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 A La Mode Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BZ1 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the BZ1 file contents when downloading or copying. 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BZ1 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BZ1 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BZ1 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BZ1 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BZ1 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move BZ1 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BZ1 to close. However, some background programs may block the BZ1 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
