Troubleshoot DL Files


Frequent DL Opening Issues

Zoo Tycoon 2 Disappeared

If you attempt to load your DL file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open DL Files". If so, it typically means that you don't have Zoo Tycoon 2 installed for %%os%%. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.


Tip: If you don't have Zoo Tycoon 2 installed, and you know of another program to open your DL file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


Zoo Tycoon 2 Requires Update

In other instances, your Zoo Tycoon 2 Data File file version may not be supported by your version of Zoo Tycoon 2. You will need to download a newer version of Zoo Tycoon 2 if you don't have the right version. Most of the time your Zoo Tycoon 2 Data File file was created by a newer Zoo Tycoon 2 than what you have installed.


Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your DL file and clicking "Properties".


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening DL files are due to having the wrong version of Zoo Tycoon 2 installed.


Additional DL Opening Issues

Even with the correct version of Zoo Tycoon 2 installed, you can still experience difficulties opening DLs. If you're still experiencing problems opening DL files, there could be other computer problems. These issues include:

  • DL file type Registry entries are wrong
  • Deletion of the DL file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Zoo Tycoon 2 or another DL application experienced a flawed installation
  • Something has caused file corruption of your DL
  • Malware-tainted DL file can't be opened
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your DL file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Too many applications are open on your PC to load your Zoo Tycoon 2 Data File file successfully
