Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UZED file
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 UZED file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the UZED file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file UZED or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UZED files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of UZED 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair UZED file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file UZED 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the UZED file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the UZED file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UZED file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UZED file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
