Hi everyone,

I am currently trying to teach my child some basic troubleshooting skills for their school project, and we wanted to see how different programs react when they encounter a faulty file. However, I am naturally very protective of my business data and personal photos, so I’m looking for a way to create these "broken" examples using copies only.

I want to maintain a professional "vibe" while ensuring that my source data remains completely untouched and secure during the entire process.

Does anyone have a step-by-step guide on how to corrupt files without damaging original.

Thanks in advance.
