How to open PZL file?

An often recurring problem with Tibo Jigs@w Puzzle Format is that PZL is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file PZL 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 PZL 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 Jigs@w

In this case, you should first verify that the Jigs@w application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Jigs@w 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 PZL.

Programs to open PZL file

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

Step 2. Create association of Jigs@w with PZL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PZL file still does not use the Jigs@w program, it means no 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 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the PZL file with the Jigs@w program.

Step 3. Update Jigs@w to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Jigs@w program with the Tibo Jigs@w Puzzle Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PZL file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to PZL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PZL file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected PZL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the PZL 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PZL files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PZL 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move PZL to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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 PZL file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
