What is BZA file?

The file in the BZA format belongs to the Compressed Files category. Compressed Files consists of 236 similar files. IZArc BGA Archive appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is IZArc. This was created by Ivan Zahariev.

How to open BZA file?

The main problem with IZArc BGA Archive is that the BZA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that BZA 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 BZA 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

The first step is to check if the computer has the IZArc program installed. This can be achieved by typing IZArc into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file BZA.

Programs to open BZA file

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

Step 2. Create association of IZArc with BZA files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BZA file still does not use the IZArc program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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 BZA file with the IZArc program.

Step 3. Update IZArc to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the IZArc program, it is possible that IZArc BGA Archive requires a newer version of the program. 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 BZA file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to BZA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BZA file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BZA files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of BZA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BZA file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BZA 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BZA to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BZA to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BZA file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
