What is GTZ file?

The GTZ file has been categorized as GIS Files. GIS Files consists of 255 similar files. GPS TrackMaker Data Format appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use GPS TrackMaker to handle this file. This is a program created by Geo Studio Technology.

How to open GTZ file?

The most common problem when using GPS TrackMaker Data Format is that a specific GTZ is not associated with the program. This causes the file GTZ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GTZ 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 GPS TrackMaker

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that GPS TrackMaker is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing GPS TrackMaker into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file GTZ with GPS TrackMaker. Below you will find a list of applications that support GTZ files.

Programs to open GTZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of GPS TrackMaker with GTZ files

If, despite the installed application, the GTZ file does not start in the GPS TrackMaker 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 GPS TrackMaker application as the default for handling the GTZ file.

Step 3. Update GPS TrackMaker to the latest version

If, despite the association of the GPS TrackMaker program with the GPS TrackMaker Data Format 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 Geo Studio Technology website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GTZ 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 GTZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GTZ file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 GTZ file. However, remember that not every infected GTZ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of GTZ file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged GTZ files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GTZ 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 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. Copying the GTZ file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the GTZ file again. However, some background programs may block the GTZ file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
