How to open ZP5 file?

An often recurring problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed is that ZP5 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file ZP5 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZP5 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. 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 ZP5 files.

Programs to open ZP5 file

Remember to download programs supporting ZP5 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZP5 files

If, despite the installed application, the ZP5 file does not start in the ZoneAlarm Pro application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ZP5 file with the ZoneAlarm Pro program.

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 ZP5 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 ZP5 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 ZP5 file. However, remember that not every infected ZP5 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 ZP5 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 option of recovering data from damaged ZP5 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.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZP5 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ZP5 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ZP5 file again. However, some background programs may block the ZP5 file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
