Programs to open ZMX file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZMX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZMX file to open in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, but you can set it manually. 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 select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ZoneAlarm Pro application as the default for handling the ZMX file.

Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version

This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. website and install the latest version.

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

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

The ZMX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZMX file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ZMX or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ZMX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ZMX 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ZMX 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 ZMX files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the ZMX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ZMX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the ZMX file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
