How to open ZPAK file?
The most common problem when using Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Game Pack is that a specific ZPAK is not associated with the program.

This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZPAK 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 PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter
The first step is to check if the computer has the PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter program installed. To do this, enter the name PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter into the 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 ZPAK files.
Programs to open ZPAK file
Remember to download programs supporting ZPAK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter with ZPAK files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZPAK file to open in the PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter application, but you can set it manually. 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ZPAK file with the PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter application.
Step 3. Update PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter to the latest version
If, despite the association of the PSXPeria: Native PSX Emulator ISO Converter program with the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Game Pack 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 Yifan Lu website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZPAK file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the ZPAK file contents when downloading or copying. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ZPAK file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected ZPAK files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ZPAK files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ZPAK file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZPAK 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. It is best to move ZPAK to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the ZPAK 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 ZPAK file again. However, some background programs may block the ZPAK file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
