Step 4. Check for the following problems with the S3P file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The S3P file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the S3P file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file S3P or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected S3P file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the S3P file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged S3P files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted S3P 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. Copying the S3P file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. 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 S3P to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the S3P file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
