Troubleshooting Problems Opening LRZ Files


Common LRZ Opening Problems

Lrzip Disappeared

When trying to open your LRZ file, you get the error "Can't Open LRZ File Type". When this happens, it is commonly due to Lrzip missing in %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your LRZ because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


Tip: Another LRZ-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Lrzip is Out-of-Date

Sometimes your installed version of Lrzip won't support your Lrzip Compressed Archive file. If you've got the wrong version of Lrzip installed, you'll need to install the correct version. The primary cause of this problem is that your Lrzip Compressed Archive file was created by a different (newer) version of Lrzip than what's installed.


Tip: Right-clicking on your LRZ, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.
