How to open LNZ file?

The main problem with Petz Linez is that the LNZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file LNZ 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 LNZ 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 Catz

In this case, you should first verify that the Catz application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Catz 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 LNZ.

Programs to open LNZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Catz with LNZ files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the LNZ file still does not use the Catz program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the LNZ file with the Catz program.

Step 3. Update Catz to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Catz program with the Petz Linez file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Ubisoft Entertainment S.A. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LNZ 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LNZ file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 LNZ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LNZ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of LNZ 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LNZ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Ubisoft Entertainment S.A. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file LNZ 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move LNZ to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the LNZ file again. However, some background programs may block the LNZ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
