How to open ZQD file?

The main problem with ZoneAlarm Mailsafe Renamed is that the ZQD file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ZQD, 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 ZQD 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. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ZQD with ZoneAlarm Pro. Below is a list of programs that support the file ZQD.

Programs to open ZQD file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZoneAlarm Pro with ZQD files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ZQD 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. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ZQD file with the ZoneAlarm Pro program.

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 ZQD file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The ZQD file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ZQD 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ZQD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ZQD 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 ZQD 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ZQD file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ZQD 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ZQD 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. 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 ZQD file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
