What is a .OZ file?
The .OZ file is a type of compressed file used by a program called Opera Job Management. This program is designed to help people manage the making of doors and windows. When the program needs to save backup data, like all the details of a job it's helping with, it saves this information into a .OZ file. This file squishes the data down so it takes up less space, thanks to something called Gzip libraries, which are just a way to pack data tightly.
People use .OZ files to keep a backup of their work or to send information about their projects through email automatically generated by the Opera Job Management program. To make an .OZ file, there's a special tool that comes with the Opera Job Management software called oz.exe. For older computers that use DOS (a very old operating system), there's another version of this tool called ozdos.exe.
Even though Opera Job Management is mainly for computers that run Windows, you can also get it to work on Linux computers if you install something called Wine. Wine is a helper program that lets you run Windows apps on Linux.
To open an .OZ file, you would typically use the Opera Job Management program from the Opera Company. This is the main software that understands how to handle and open these compressed files.
