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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZLZ files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZLZ file still does not use the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ZLZ file with the ZoneAlarm Pro application.

Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZLZ 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZLZ file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ZLZ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ZLZ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ZLZ file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZLZ file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ZLZ 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the ZLZ file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ZLZ file again. However, some background programs may block the ZLZ file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
