How to open FGZ file?
An often recurring problem with Formula Graphics Standalone Presentation Archive is that FGZ is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file FGZ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FGZ 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 Formula Graphics
In this case, you should first verify that the Formula Graphics application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Formula Graphics into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file FGZ.
Programs to open FGZ file
Remember to download programs supporting FGZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Formula Graphics with FGZ files
If, despite the installed application, the FGZ file does not start in the Formula Graphics application, you must create a file association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 Formula Graphics application as the default for handling the FGZ file.
Step 3. Update Formula Graphics to the latest version
If, however, after binding Formula Graphics with Formula Graphics Standalone Presentation Archive there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the FGX website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FGZ 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 FGZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FGZ file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FGZ 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 FGZ 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FGZ files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact FGX
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FGZ 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.
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. Copying the FGZ file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. 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 FGZ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
