How to open ZLK file?
An often recurring problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed MSI is that ZLK is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ZLK, 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 ZLK 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. Below you will find a list of applications that support ZLK files.
Programs to open ZLK file
Remember to download programs supporting ZLK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZLK files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZLK file to open in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 ZLK 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The fault may also lie with the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it is possible that ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed MSI requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZLK 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZLK file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZLK file. However, remember that not every infected ZLK 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 ZLK 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZLK file corruption. 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 file ZLK 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the ZLK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ZLK 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. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
