How to open ZLIC file?
The main problem with KeyShot Licence Format is that the ZLIC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ZLIC files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZLIC 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 Keyshot
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Keyshot is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Keyshot in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ZLIC with Keyshot. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ZLIC files.
Programs to open ZLIC file
Remember to download programs supporting ZLIC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Keyshot with ZLIC files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZLIC file still does not use the Keyshot 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ZLIC file with the Keyshot program.
Step 3. Update Keyshot to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Keyshot program, it is possible that KeyShot Licence Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Luxion, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZLIC file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The ZLIC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZLIC file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ZLIC or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ZLIC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ZLIC files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ZLIC files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZLIC 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 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. Copying the ZLIC file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ZLIC to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZLIC file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
