Lziprecover is a data recovery tool and decompressor for files in the 
lzip compressed data format (.lz), able to repair slightly damaged 
files, recover badly damaged files from two or more copies, extract data 
from damaged files, decompress files and test integrity of files.

The lzip file format is designed for long-term data archiving. It is 
clean, provides very safe 4 factor integrity checking, and is backed by 
the recovery capabilities of lziprecover.

Lziprecover is able to recover or decompress files produced by any of 
the compressors in the lzip family; lzip, plzip, minilzip/lzlib, clzip 
and pdlzip.

depending on file size and position of error.
