How to open EDZ file?
The most common problem when using ProductView Compressed Package is that a specific EDZ is not associated with the program. This causes the file EDZ 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 EDZ 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 Creo View Lite
The first step is to check if the computer has the Creo View Lite program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Creo View Lite in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file EDZ with Creo View Lite. Below is a list of programs that support the file EDZ.
Programs to open EDZ file
Remember to download programs supporting EDZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Creo View Lite with EDZ files
If, despite the installed application, the EDZ file does not start in the Creo View Lite 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. 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 Creo View Lite application as the default for handling the EDZ file.
Step 3. Update Creo View Lite to the latest version
If, however, after binding Creo View Lite with ProductView Compressed Package there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EDZ file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The EDZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the EDZ 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the EDZ file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover EDZ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of EDZ 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EDZ files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file EDZ 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move EDZ to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the EDZ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the EDZ file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
