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.

There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PTI file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Punch! Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PTI 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 PTI file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PTI to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PTI file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
