How to open ZHTML file?

The main problem with Secure IE Zipped HTML Format is that the ZHTML file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ZHTML files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZHTML 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 Secure IE

In this case, you should first verify that the Secure IE application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Secure IE in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ZHTML with Secure IE. Below you will find a list of applications that support ZHTML files.

Programs to open ZHTML file

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

Step 2. Create association of Secure IE with ZHTML files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZHTML file to open in the Secure IE 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 ZHTML file with the Secure IE program.

Step 3. Update Secure IE to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Secure IE program, it is possible that Secure IE Zipped HTML Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Winferno Software page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to ZHTML files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ZHTML file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ZHTML files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ZHTML file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ZHTML files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Winferno Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZHTML 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ZHTML to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ZHTML file again. However, some background programs may block the ZHTML file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
