How to open ZLR file?

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

In this case, you should first verify that the ZoneAlarm Pro application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing ZoneAlarm Pro into the operating system search engine. 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 ZLR files.

Programs to open ZLR file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZLR files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZLR file to open in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, but you can set it manually. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ZLR file with the ZoneAlarm Pro program.

Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ZoneAlarm Pro program with the ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed SCT file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. 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 ZLR file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The ZLR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ZLR files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ZLR file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected ZLR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ZLR 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZLR 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 ZLR 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move ZLR to a different directory.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ZLR to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZLR file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
