What is a .GB1 file?

Backup of a game project created with GameMaker, a game development program; created in case the original project file becomes corrupted or is accidentally deleted.

What Are Common Causes of ".GB1" Files Lost or Failure?

There can be several common causes of ".GB1" file loss or failure:

  1. Accidental deletion: The most common cause is accidentally deleting the ".GB1" file. This can happen when you are cleaning up your computer or storage device and accidentally delete the file without realizing its importance.
  2. File system corruption: File system corruption can occur due to various reasons such as power failure, improper system shutdown, virus or malware infection, or hardware issues. When the file system gets corrupted, it can result in the loss or failure of ".GB1" files.
  3. Software or hardware issues: Issues with the software or hardware used to create or access ".GB1" files can also lead to their loss or failure. This can include software crashes, compatibility issues, or hardware failure.
  4. Disk errors: Errors on the storage device where the ".GB1" file is stored, such as bad sectors or disk failure, can result in the loss or failure of the file.
  5. Data corruption: Data corruption can occur due to various reasons, including software bugs, virus or malware infection, or issues with the storage device. When ".GB1" files get corrupted, they may become unreadable or inaccessible.
  6. Human error: Human error, such as accidental formatting of the storage device, improper handling of files, or mistakenly overwriting the ".GB1" file, can also cause its loss or failure.
  7. File system limitations: Some file systems have limitations on file size, file name length, or the number of files that can be stored in a directory. If the ".GB1" file exceeds these limitations, it may lead to file loss or failure.

It is always recommended to have regular backups of important files to prevent permanent loss in case of any unexpected events.

How to recover lost ".GB1" files?

Sometimes while working with a computer, laptop or other stationary or mobile devices, you may encounter various bugs, freezes, hardware or software failures, even in spite of regular updates and junk cleaning. As a result, an important ".GB1" file may be deleted.

By no means should you think that the only way to recover a ".GB1" file is always to create it once more.

Use programs for recovering ".GB1" files if a file was lost after accidental or deliberate deleting, formatting the memory card or the internal storage, cleaning the storage device, after a virus attack or a system failure.
