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

Step 2. Create association of Panzer Corps with PZSAV files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PZSAV file still does not use the Panzer Corps program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the PZSAV file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 PZSAV file. However, remember that not every infected PZSAV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PZSAV file. 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 PZSAV files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PZSAV files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the PZSAV file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PZSAV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PZSAV to close. However, some background programs may block the PZSAV file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
