How to open ZSQL file?

An often recurring problem with ZIP Compressed SQL is that ZSQL is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file ZSQL 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 ZSQL 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 EMS SQL Manager for MySQL

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that EMS SQL Manager for MySQL is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name EMS SQL Manager for MySQL in it.

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

Step 2. Create association of EMS SQL Manager for MySQL with ZSQL files

If, despite the installed application, the ZSQL file does not start in the EMS SQL Manager for MySQL application, you must create a file association. 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 set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ZSQL file with the EMS SQL Manager for MySQL program.

Step 3. Update EMS SQL Manager for MySQL to the latest version

If, however, after binding EMS SQL Manager for MySQL with ZIP Compressed SQL 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 EMS page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ZSQL file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The ZSQL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ZSQL file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ZSQL file. Sometimes virus-infected ZSQL files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ZSQL file. 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ZSQL files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ZSQL 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the ZSQL file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ZSQL to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
