ZOT Troubleshooting


Issues Opening ZOT Files

ZoneAlarm Pro Removed

When trying to open your ZOT file, you get the error "Can't Open ZOT File Type". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have ZoneAlarm Pro for %%os%% installed on your computer. The typical path of opening your ZOT with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


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


ZoneAlarm Pro Requires Update

In other instances, your Zone Alarm Mailsafe Renamed File file version may not be supported by your version of ZoneAlarm Pro. Visit the Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. website to download (or purchase) the latest version of ZoneAlarm Pro. This problem is predominately due to having a Zone Alarm Mailsafe Renamed File file version that was created by a newer version of ZoneAlarm Pro than what you have installed on your PC.


Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the ZOT file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Summary: Not having the right ZoneAlarm Pro version on your computer can cause problems opening ZOT files.


More Causes of Problems Opening ZOTs

Assuming you have the right ZoneAlarm Pro version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening ZOT files. If you are still having problems opening ZOT files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Other contributing causes:

  • Defective install of a ZOT program, such as ZoneAlarm Pro
  • Your ZOT can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
