Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VBPF1 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 VBPF1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the VBPF1 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VBPF1 file. However, remember that not every infected VBPF1 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 VBPF1 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VBPF1 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Knowledge Matters help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted VBPF1 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move VBPF1 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VBPF1 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
