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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PAYRMS file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PAYRMS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PAYRMS file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PAYRMS files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.

This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the PAYRMS 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 PAYRMS file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PAYRMS file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
