How to open ZMY file?
The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed is that the ZMY file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ZMY files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZMY 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. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ZoneAlarm Pro in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ZMY files.
Programs to open ZMY file
Remember to download programs supporting ZMY files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZMY files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZMY 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ZMY file with the ZoneAlarm Pro application.
Step 3. Update ZoneAlarm Pro to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ZoneAlarm Pro program with the ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest 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 ZMY file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The ZMY file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ZMY files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZMY file. Sometimes virus-infected ZMY files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ZMY 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZMY 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 ZMY 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. It is best to move ZMY to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZMY file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
