How to open Z19 file?
An often recurring problem with Split Multi-volume ZIP Compressed Format Archive (part 20) is that Z19 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file Z19 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the Z19 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 WinZip
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WinZip is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WinZip in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file Z19 with WinZip.

Programs to open Z19 file
Remember to download programs supporting Z19 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WinZip with Z19 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the Z19 file still does not use the WinZip program, it means no 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the Z19 file with the WinZip program.
Step 3. Update WinZip to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WinZip program with the Split Multi-volume ZIP Compressed Format Archive (part 20) file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the WinZip Computing, S.L. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the Z19 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The Z19 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the Z19 file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file Z19 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected Z19 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 Z19 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 Z19 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact WinZip Computing, S.L.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file Z19 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the Z19 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the Z19 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file Z19 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the Z19 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
