Open ZMC File

ZMC extension file is a type of file created by ZoneAlarm Antivirus, an antivirus program that protects computers from viruses, malware, and hackers.

ZoneAlarm is capable of detecting malware and other viruses, and offers intuitive protection, meaning if it's the first time you encounter certain threats, your system will be protected as well.

ZoneAlarm scans suspicious files and their behavior in the always-up-to-date cloud before they can access your computer.

The ZMC file monitors the content of email attachments marked as suspicious.

The ZMC, in fact, is used to identify and quarantine suspicious email attachments.

ZMC files are created when antivirus software renames the original email attachment with an additional ZMC file extension.

ZoneAlarm automatically sends these files to a quarantine folder within the ZoneAlarm installation to keep them separate from the rest of the file system.

ZMC files are not designed to be opened manually, therefore we do not recommend opening them unless you are sure of their content as they may contain viruses.

Once verified, the original email attachments can be viewed by removing the ZMC file extension and opening the resulting file.
