How to open ZTM file?

An often recurring problem with ZTreeWin Macro is that ZTM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ZTM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ZTM 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 ZTreeWin

The first step is to check if the computer has the ZTreeWin program installed. This can be achieved by typing ZTreeWin into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ZTM with ZTreeWin. Below is a list of programs that support the file ZTM.

Programs to open ZTM file

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

Step 2. Create association of ZTreeWin with ZTM files

If, despite the installed application, the ZTM file does not start in the ZTreeWin 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. 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. 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 ZTM file with the ZTreeWin program.

Step 3. Update ZTreeWin to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ZTreeWin program with the ZTreeWin Macro file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the ZTree page and install.

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

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

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the ZTM file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ZTM or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ZTM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ZTM 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ZTM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting ZTree, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ZTM files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ZTM to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ZTM to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ZTM file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
