How to open ZL6 file?

The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed COM is that the ZL6 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file ZL6 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZL6 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

If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ZL6 with ZoneAlarm Pro. Below is a list of programs that support the file ZL6.

Programs to open ZL6 file

Remember to download programs supporting ZL6 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZL6 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZL6 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. 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 ZL6 file with the ZoneAlarm Pro program.

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The fault may also lie with the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it is possible that ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed COM requires a newer version of the program.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 Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZL6 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The ZL6 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZL6 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZL6 file. However, remember that not every infected ZL6 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ZL6 file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ZL6 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file ZL6 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. 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 ZL6 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the ZL6 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 ZL6 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
