How to open ZLG file?

Programs to open ZLG file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZLG files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZLG file still does not use the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 ZLG file.

Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ZoneAlarm Pro program with the ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed LNK 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 ZLG file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The ZLG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZLG 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ZLG file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ZLG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ZLG 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ZLG file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ZLG 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the ZLG file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ZLG file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZLG file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
