How to open ZOF file?

The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed is that the ZOF file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ZOF, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZOF 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.

Programs to open ZOF file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZOF files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ZOF file still does not use the ZoneAlarm Pro program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 ZOF file with the ZoneAlarm Pro application.

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. 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 ZOF 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. Usually this applies to ZOF files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ZOF file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected ZOF files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ZOF 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZOF file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZOF 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. Copying the ZOF file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the ZOF file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ZOF file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZOF file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
