What is an FRZ file?

FRZ files mostly belong to Insurance viewer/Snes9x. FRZ files have two main uses. The majority are used as Freeze File Archives by insurance systems to store a snapshot of data. This format saves an unalterable record used in data backup processes.
Some FRZ files are also SNES ROM save files, which store a game’s state. These save files are compressed using GZIP and work with emulators. For example, you can open these with Snes9x.
Key points compiled by FilExt.com:

If your FRZ file comes from an insurance source, it is likely part of a proprietary archive system.

If it is a game save, it contains compressed game state data using GZIP.

How do you open FRZ files?

You need a suitable software like Insurance viewer/Snes9x to open an FRZ file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert.
