The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MBP file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MBP or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected MBP 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 MBP file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MBP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Mobipocket
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MBP 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the MBP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MBP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MBP file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
