A .zor file typically serves one of two distinct, unconnected purposes, causing significant confusion for users.
For most modern users, this is a Game Progress File generated by the popular VR puzzle game I Expect You To Die. Developed by Schell Games, this file (often named IEYTDProgress.zor) stores your campaign completion data, unlocked souvenirs, and speed-run times.
The Problem: These files are often hidden deep in system directories (e.g., AppData/LocalLow on Windows or /Android/data on Quest). They are proprietary NET serialized data or obfuscated text, meaning you cannot simply double-click to "open" them in Microsoft Word or a standard image viewer. Players frequently look to "convert" these files to transfer progress between platforms (e.g., moving a save from Oculus Quest to SteamVR) or to edit values (unlocking levels).
The Solution:
.zor file to the correct directory on the target device.If you received this file via email, it is likely a "safety locked" attachment created by ZoneAlarm firewall software. The software automatically renames potentially dangerous executables (like EXE, BAT, or VBS) to .ZOR to prevent accidental execution.
The Solution: There is no file conversion required. To restore the file, verify the sender is safe, then Right-Click > Rename the file, deleting the .zor extension to reveal the original format (e.g., changing image.jpg.zor back to image.jpg).

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database.

Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our ZOR converter.
