After downloading comprezz to my Kali instance, I ran file comprezz an d received the following output ��f9�'FnĠ���j�CC�34h̐q���f0Z�% Based on the challenge name and that the file is not readable, I decided to try to uncompress the file using. First I changed the file name from comprezz to comprezz.z Then I used uncompress comprezz. The extract file is comprezz which had the flag.
