The CPUPROFILE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to CPUPROFILE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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.

When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CPUPROFILE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move CPUPROFILE to a different directory.
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 you have to wait for the session to the file CPUPROFILE to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CPUPROFILE file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
