Sometimes virus-infected BPD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.

This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BPD 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 BPD to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BPD file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
