Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to TGT 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 most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TGT file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TGT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TGT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TGT file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TGT 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the TGT file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the TGT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TGT to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TGT file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
