How to open Z2 file?
The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed is that the Z2 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open Z2, 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 Z2 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 ZoneAlarm Pro
In this case, you should first verify that the ZoneAlarm Pro application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing ZoneAlarm Pro 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 Z2 files.
Programs to open Z2 file
Remember to download programs supporting Z2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with Z2 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the Z2 file to open in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the Z2 file with the ZoneAlarm Pro application.
Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it is possible that ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the Z2 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The Z2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to Z2 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 Z2 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover Z2 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the Z2 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular Z2 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file Z2 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the Z2 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the Z2 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
