How to open ZL2 file?
The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed BAS is that the ZL2 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ZL2 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZL2 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. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ZL2 files.
Programs to open ZL2 file
Remember to download programs supporting ZL2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZL2 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZL2 file still does not use the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ZL2 file with the ZoneAlarm Pro program.
Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ZoneAlarm Pro program with the ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed BAS 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 Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZL2 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the ZL2 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ZL2 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ZL2 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of ZL2 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZL2 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ZL2 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. Copying the ZL2 file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the ZL2 file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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 ZL2 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
