Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZL8 files
If, despite the installed application, the ZL8 file does not start in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, you must create a file 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.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZL8 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The ZL8 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ZL8 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ZL8 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ZL8 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 ZL8 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ZL8 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 ZL8 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. Copying the ZL8 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the ZL8 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ZL8 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZL8 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
