Step 2. Create association of ZSNES with ZM6 files

If, despite the installed application, the ZM6 file does not start in the ZSNES application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZM6 file

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

The ZM6 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZM6 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZM6 file. However, remember that not every infected ZM6 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 ZM6 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZM6 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ZM6 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the ZM6 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ZM6 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
