Step 2. Create association of IUCLID with I5Z files
If, despite the installed application, the I5Z file does not start in the IUCLID 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 I5Z file with the IUCLID application.

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to I5Z files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our I5Z file. However, remember that not every infected I5Z file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of I5Z 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 I5Z files. You can restore the file from a backup or use IUCLID help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted I5Z 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move I5Z to a different directory.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file I5Z to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the I5Z file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
