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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NAPT file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NAPT or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected NAPT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NAPT files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NAPT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file NAPT except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the NAPT file to another location will fix the problem.
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 NAPT to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NAPT file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
