How to open TZD file?

The most common problem when using Netscape Communicator is that a specific TZD is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that TZD files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TZD 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 Netscape Navigator

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Netscape Navigator is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Netscape Navigator into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TZD files.

Programs to open TZD file

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

Step 2. Create association of Netscape Navigator with TZD files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TZD file to open in the Netscape Navigator application, but you can set it manually. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 TZD file with the Netscape Navigator program.

Step 3. Update Netscape Navigator to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Netscape Navigator program with the Netscape Communicator file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the AOL Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TZD 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 TZD file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TZD file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected TZD 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 TZD 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TZD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use AOL Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TZD 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. It is best to move TZD to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. 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 TZD file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TZD file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
