The WLPGINSTALL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the WLPGINSTALL file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.

The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WLPGINSTALL files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move WLPGINSTALL 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WLPGINSTALL file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
