Corrupt

When files are not written correctly, are saved improperly or are mistakenly modified by another file, it is possible for a file to become corrupt. When a file or set of files becomes corrupt, it cannot be opened without errors because of being damaged, and in some cases, may not be able to be recovered or fixed without the file being replaced by a backup.
