What is ULZ file?

The file with the extension ULZ is the Data Files file type. The creator of this file is USBlyzer. Additionally, the Data Files category contains 1326 of other files. USBlyzer Data Capture Format appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows.

How to open ULZ file?

The main problem with USBlyzer Data Capture Format is that the ULZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ULZ, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ULZ 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 USBlyzer

In this case, you should first verify that the USBlyzer application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name USBlyzer in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support ULZ files.

Programs to open ULZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of USBlyzer with ULZ files

If, despite the installed application, the ULZ file does not start in the USBlyzer application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ULZ file with the USBlyzer program.

Step 3. Update USBlyzer to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the USBlyzer program, it is possible that USBlyzer Data Capture Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the usblyzer.com website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The ULZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ULZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 ULZ file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ULZ 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 ULZ 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ULZ files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting USBlyzer, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ULZ 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the ULZ file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ULZ to close. However, some background programs may block the ULZ file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
