The BP1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BP1 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BP1 file.

There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BP1 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact SmartWare Corporation
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BP1 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BP1 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BP1 file again. However, some background programs may block the BP1 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
