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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The MBZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to MBZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MBZ file. However, remember that not every infected MBZ 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 MBZ 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 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 MBZ file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MBZ 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the MBZ file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MBZ to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
