Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the TOMBRAIDER 3 file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TOMBRAIDER 3 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TOMBRAIDER 3 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 TOMBRAIDER 3 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 TOMBRAIDER 3 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Core Design help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TOMBRAIDER 3 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the TOMBRAIDER 3 file to another location will fix the problem.
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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TOMBRAIDER 3 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TOMBRAIDER 3 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
