The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CDV file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. 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 CDV file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CDV files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of CDV file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CDV file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Square Box Systems Ltd. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CDV 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the CDV file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CDV to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CDV file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
