Occasionally, you may encounter an error on a specific file. We have found that when this occurs, some outside influence, usually hardware related, has caused a file to corrupt. The GlassShop System contains advanced file management utilities that can facilitate the retrieval of data. Some of the reasons why you may corrupt a file include:

  • GlassShop System left on overnight or over a weekend, and the power is interrupted while an editable file is open, like an account setup file,
  • general hardware failure - usually an imminent hard disk failure,
  • power surge on unprotected computer,
  • lightning or similar strike causing electrical spike,
  • user shuts down computer while writing to file,
  • network failure, which may include:poor network cable condition, poor network cable routing, network card failure, less than optimum network configuration.
  • poor condition of hard drive causing errors and less than optimum performance- we recommend running scandisk and disk defragmenter daily, and
  • an incomplete or poor restoration from a backup copy.
