As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover R46 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the R46 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.

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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file R46 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the R46 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
