How to open ZMK file?

An often recurring problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed is that ZMK is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ZMK, 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 ZMK 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

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ZoneAlarm Pro 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 ZMK files.

Programs to open ZMK file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZMK files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZMK 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. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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 ZMK file with the ZoneAlarm Pro program.

Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version

If, however, after binding ZoneAlarm Pro with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest 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 ZMK file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZMK file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZMK file. However, remember that not every infected ZMK file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ZMK files changes over time. 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 option of recovering data from damaged ZMK files. 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.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file ZMK 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ZMK to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the ZMK file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
