On that thread I read:

"I just bumped up against an EMZ file too. I used RAR to extract it, put an EMF file extension on it and opened it with Irfanview." 

But that's not he double-click solution you're looking for.

Wouldn't you need some kind of viewer and associate that viewer with the emz extension?  How about Irfanview?

Hi all

Someone sends me emz image files. These are gzip'ed Windows Enhanced Metagraphic files.

I can drag and drop them onto an open Word or PowerPoint in document view, and they display at once in the document.
But how can I open them directly so I would be able just to double-click an emz file?
