Step 2. Create association of ALZip with EGG files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the EGG file still does not use the ALZip program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the EGG file with the ALZip application.

Step 3. Update ALZip to the latest version

If, however, after binding ALZip with ALZip EGG Compressed Archive Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the ESTsoft Corp. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EGG 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the EGG file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our EGG file. Sometimes virus-infected EGG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the EGG files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EGG files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Autodesk
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EGG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the EGG file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the EGG file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
