Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to FBP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. 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 FBP file. However, remember that not every infected FBP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FBP file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 FBP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use wxFormBuilder help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FBP 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the FBP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FBP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FBP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FBP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
