If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The W2E file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the W2E 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the W2E file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover W2E files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the W2E file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged W2E files. You can restore the file from a backup or use John Melas Software help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted W2E 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move W2E to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the W2E file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the W2E file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the W2E file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
