It often happens that you only need to preview the contents of the HGZ file, without the need to edit or process the data contained in it. Then do not install dedicated software and use tools such as HGZ Viewer. Such a program allows us only to display the contents of the HGZ file. To view the content of the HGZ file you can use several options:
Our HGZ Viewer did not live up to what I expected? Choose something else The first is to download the software that supports HGZ files Here are some sample programs that can help you. By using the dedicated software you will have more options, e.g. editing the HGZ file or converting the HGZ file to a different file format.
The first important thing is that you will need to download and install a dedicated application that supports the HGZ format on your device. In this case, it is not possible to view the HGZ file online. This method is more complicated, but it offers more possibilities for working with the HGZ file. You can find some examples of dedicated software below, and the full list is here HGZ File Opener
If you haven't been able to preview the contents of the HGZ file yet, or you don't want to install any dedicated programming to handle these files, you can try something else. A large proportion of the data formats are simply archives or plain text files. If this is the case, you can try to preview the contents of HGZ file with "Notepad". This does not guarantee success, but in most cases it will allow you to see the contents of the HGZ file to some extent.
The second attempt may be with a data archiving program. Try to open your file with e.g. Winrar or Winzip. If the file is a data archive, you should see what individual files it consists of. To get information about what kind of data it is, go to the subpage with information about the HGZ file extension.
