Step 2. Create association of Quake 2 with RTZ files

If, despite the installed application, the RTZ file does not start in the Quake 2 application, you must create a file 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RTZ file with the Quake 2 application.

Step 3. Update Quake 2 to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Quake 2 program with the Eraser Bot For Quake 2 Route Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the id Software LLC website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to RTZ 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. 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 RTZ file. However, remember that not every infected RTZ 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 RTZ file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RTZ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RTZ files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the RTZ file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RTZ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
