The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BDAV file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BDAV files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of BDAV file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BDAV file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BDAV except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the BDAV file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the BDAV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BDAV to close. However, some background programs may block the BDAV file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
