Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HANDLEBARS file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The HANDLEBARS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to HANDLEBARS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file HANDLEBARS or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected HANDLEBARS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the HANDLEBARS file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HANDLEBARS file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HANDLEBARS 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 HANDLEBARS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HANDLEBARS to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the HANDLEBARS file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
