Step 4. Check for the following problems with the C06 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The C06 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the C06 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file C06 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover C06 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of C06 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular C06 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact e-merge GmbH
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file C06 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. Copying the C06 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the C06 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the C06 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
