The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WEBZ 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 Web Books Viewer
In this case, you should first verify that the Web Books Viewer application is installed on the computer.

Programs to open WEBZ file
Remember to download programs supporting WEBZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Web Books Viewer with WEBZ files
If, despite the installed application, the WEBZ file does not start in the Web Books Viewer application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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 select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WEBZ file with the Web Books Viewer application.
Step 3. Update Web Books Viewer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Web Books Viewer program with the WEBZ Compressed EBook Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WEBZ file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the WEBZ file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. 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 WEBZ file. Sometimes virus-infected WEBZ 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 WEBZ 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WEBZ file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file WEBZ except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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 WEBZ 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WEBZ to close. However, some background programs may block the WEBZ file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
