Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WIE file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to WIE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WIE file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected WIE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WIE files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WIE file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WIE 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.
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 WIE file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the WIE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WIE to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WIE file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
