How to open ZLA file?

The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed HLP is that the ZLA file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ZLA, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

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

The first step is to check if the computer has the ZoneAlarm Pro program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ZoneAlarm Pro in it. 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 ZLA files.

Programs to open ZLA file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZLA files

If, despite the installed application, the ZLA file does not start in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ZoneAlarm Pro application as the default for handling the ZLA file.

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The fault may also lie with the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it is possible that ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed HLP requires a newer version of the program.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 ZLA 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the ZLA 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. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZLA file. Sometimes virus-infected ZLA files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ZLA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ZLA files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZLA 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. If possible, you can try to move the ZLA file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ZLA file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ZLA to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZLA file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
