How to open TRZ file?

The main problem with Norton Antivirus Rapidrelease Definition Update is that the TRZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that TRZ files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TRZ 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 Norton AntiVirus

The first step is to check if the computer has the Norton AntiVirus program installed. This can be achieved by typing Norton AntiVirus into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TRZ files.

Programs to open TRZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Norton AntiVirus with TRZ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TRZ file to open in the Norton AntiVirus application, but you can set it manually. 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Norton AntiVirus application as the default for handling the TRZ file.

Step 3. Update Norton AntiVirus to the latest version

If, however, after binding Norton AntiVirus with Norton Antivirus Rapidrelease Definition Update there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Symantec Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TRZ 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 TRZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the TRZ file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TRZ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected TRZ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TRZ files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TRZ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Symantec Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TRZ 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move TRZ 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. However, some background programs may block the TRZ file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
