The REPLAY file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the REPLAY file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the REPLAY file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover REPLAY files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of REPLAY file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged REPLAY files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file REPLAY 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the REPLAY file to another location will fix the problem.
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 REPLAY file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the REPLAY file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
