You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .dzp. Files with the file extension .dzp can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .dzp files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.

A DirectorZone Particle Effect File contains digital video effects like animated digital objects, particles and static graphical elements included in a DVD creation project using the PowerDirector software. The PowerDirector application is a program designed to provide users with a set of functionalities that can be used to implement interactive features in a DVD project which can later be burned unto compatible DVDs, other supported optical media types and in disk image formats implemented into the PowerDirector application. These PowerDirector projects are saved in the DZP format and are affixed with the .dzp extension. The content of these DZP files can be integrated into the video content of a DVD disk to add interactive functions to the DVD's menu navigation screens and dynamic menu content. A DVD authoring project created using the PowerDirector program requires the user to select a particular aspect ratio for the digital video content. This means users should know the aspect ratios of their DVD movies and the support for these aspect ratio DVDs implemented into their standard DVD players. Cyberlink owns and operates a Web community where DVD movies can be downloaded from, and the online portal is called DirectorZone.

Launch a .dzp file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .dzp file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .dzp files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .dzp file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a  .dzp file will open the correct application.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .dzp files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.

A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .dzp. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
