Compressed Windows Metafile (.wmz)
The WMZ file extension, denoting Compressed Windows Metafile, is used for storing vector graphics in a compressed format. Originating from the WMF format developed by Microsoft in the late 1980s, WMZ files employ Gzip compression to minimize file size, enabling easier sharing and storage. Commonly found in older Microsoft Office documents, these files can be decompressed and viewed using various utilities and applications.
