A file is named secret.png but Windows refuses to open it. What's the immediate problem?
1
Nothing — PNG headers vary
2
The PNG magic should be 89 50 4E 47 0D 0A 1A 0A. Here the first 4 bytes are corrupted — restore them to 89 50 4E 47 and the file opens
3
It is not a PNG at all; it is a PDF
4
The file is encrypted with AES
