How to open DISTZ file?
The most common problem when using Apple Mac OS X Installer Distribution is that a specific DISTZ is not associated with the program. This causes the file DISTZ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DISTZ 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 Mac OS X
In this case, you should first verify that the Mac OS X application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mac OS X in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DISTZ with Mac OS X. Below you will find a list of applications that support DISTZ files.
Programs to open DISTZ file
Remember to download programs supporting DISTZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with DISTZ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DISTZ file to open in the Mac OS X 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Mac OS X application as the default for handling the DISTZ file.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Mac OS X program, it is possible that Apple Mac OS X Installer Distribution requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Apple, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DISTZ 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. Usually this applies to DISTZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file DISTZ or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected DISTZ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of DISTZ file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DISTZ file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Apple, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DISTZ except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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 DISTZ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the DISTZ file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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 DISTZ file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
