Programs to open DLZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Crossword Power Tools with DLZ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DLZ file to open in the Crossword Power Tools application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DLZ file with the Crossword Power Tools application.

Step 3. Update Crossword Power Tools to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Crossword Power Tools program with the Crossword Power Tools Crossword Library 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 CPT website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the DLZ file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 DLZ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DLZ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the DLZ files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DLZ files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact CPT
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file DLZ 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the DLZ file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the DLZ file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
