What is a .AZF file?

The .AZF file extension is associated with the AirZip FileSECURE File. This type of file is specifically designed to be secure and is primarily used to protect the contents of the file from unauthorized access. The .AZF file contains data that has been converted into the AZS format to enhance its security features.

To open an .AZF file, you need to use the AirZip FileSECURE Reader application. This program ensures that the file remains secure by enforcing the permissions set by the file's sender. These permissions can vary; for example, you might be allowed to view, copy, or print the file, depending on the permissions granted.

The AirZip FileSECURE Reader also has special security measures such as disabling the Windows print screen function and other similar utilities to prevent unauthorized copying or capturing of the file's content.

When you receive an .AZF file, you can check what actions you are allowed to perform with it by opening the file in the AirZip FileSECURE Reader and selecting File → Properties from the menu, or by clicking on the "Properties" option directly from the taskbar. A window will appear showing your specific permissions along with other details about the file.

If you have permission to copy the file and you also have the original program that created the file (like Microsoft Word for .DOCX files, Adobe Reader for .PDF files, etc.), you can open the .AZF file in its native application.

It's important to note that .AZF files are essentially the same as .AZS files, just under a different extension. Both are used by the AirZip FileSECURE system to protect and secure files. Some common types of files that can be secured using this system include documents (.DOCX), PDFs (.PDF), presentations (.PPT), and various image and audio files (.PNG, .BMP, .JPEG, .MP3).
