Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AGE3XREC file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The AGE3XREC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to AGE3XREC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AGE3XREC file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AGE3XREC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of AGE3XREC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AGE3XREC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Studios
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted AGE3XREC files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the AGE3XREC file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the AGE3XREC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the AGE3XREC file again. However, some background programs may block the AGE3XREC file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
