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

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

The PSPFRAME file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to PSPFRAME files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PSPFRAME or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PSPFRAME files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PSPFRAME 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PSPFRAME files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file PSPFRAME 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 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. If possible, you can try to move the PSPFRAME file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PSPFRAME file again. However, some background programs may block the PSPFRAME file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
