    The files on the SD still show as 'corrupted' even with MalwareBytes disabled.

    I do seem to be able to DELETE files now, which is something I suppose!

    The binary comparison went off without a hitch. So, the SD card would seem to be in order, but PerfectTUNES won't have any of it. Odd.

    Yes, that's exactly how it is. Bizarre!

    Obviously I don't want to start cross-threading, but I posted a quickie here (verbatim-03) just to try to eliminate all possibilities. It may or may not be a factor (I don't that it is as I still believe the problem lies within Windoze):


    I phoned Amazon who said that (because I purchased it directly from Amazon) I can return the SD for a like-for-like replacement. So that is one option. Though I doubt the SD is at fault and I may run into the same scenario with the replacement.

    The problem seems to be only with PerfectTUNES. I recall from a couple of pages ago that running Test Conversion on the SD card files found no corruption.

    Hi JH,

    I deleted everything from the SD-card and then formatted it. It took 3 hours! Should it really take so long to format a blank SD?

    I then transferred all of FLACs back onto the SD (took another 3 hours!).

    I cleared the cache of PerfTunes; and now I am running PerfTunes on the SD. It's going to take, it estimates 2/3 hours ...

    If this fails, I think the only other thing I can do is uninstall MalwareBytes (as opposed to just disabling it).

    Wow, reading off SD card must be very slow. I recently ran perfecttunes on about 50,000 FLAC files and it a little less than 2 hours. Reading files directly from an internal HDD (spinning not an SSD drive).

    Hi Garym,

    You posted the very second my most recent PerfTunes completed!

    I think one of the many things I have tried over the last 12 hours may have worked because, as I interpret it, the FLACs on the SD are no longer appearing as being 'corrupted'?:


    I can't pinpoint which factor though!

    Paul

    (The scan shows results for C-drive and SD-card.)

    Correct. none of these files are now being reported to you as corrupt.

    Cheers Garym.

    Any guesses as to what may have been the root cause, please? SD, MalwareBytes, Windoze, PerfTunes? Could it be related to my earlier question (please see verbatim-3):


    And would you (permanently?) uninstall MalwareBytes and well as accepting a replacement SD from Amazon?

    Many thanks.

    In which mobile devices are you using the SD Card?

    mville,

    I transfer all recently ripped FLACs via my PC to the SD-card (as I go along). Then I predominantly use the SD-card in my Amazon Fire-Tablet (ie. my playback device) using 'VLC'. The Amazon Fire has only 16GB onboard storage.

    Thanks.

    What OS is the Amazon Fire-Tablet?

    Do you plug the SD-Card into the PC, copy files to it and then plug into the Amazon Fire-Tablet?
