Extension: PIZ
Program and/or Extension Function [What's This?]		Company [What's This?]
Renamed Zip File
Specific Notes [What's This?]
In order to get around some E-mail attachment blockers tuned to block out the .ZIP file extension some have taken to renaming the file with a .PIZ extension (.ZIP backwards). Use any unzipping utility after renaming the file. Look at the file in an editor (do NOT save the file from the editor) and see if it has the characteristic PK characters as the first characters in the file to confirm the file is really a ZIP file.

General Info

• If the extension you are looking for is of the form .??_ the file is likely a compressed file and part of an install routine. When the install program runs it will expand the file and replace the underscore with the proper letter for the file type.
• If the file is sent as an audio file with any three-character extension it may be a dictation file where the extension is the dictator's initials; playable by BCB Voice Systems software (see ??? extension). The file could likewise be a dictation file in TrueSpeech format. Use Windows Sound Recorder and/or Media Player to play these back.
• If the extension you are looking for has a number at the end or is only a number and there were no results consider entering the same extension format using zero or one as some programs produce numbered split files but when the split can be extensive (e.g., .000-.999) only the first entry is in the database.
