QvSharedFileViewer Invalid Error (Failed to read BlobDb)

I am trying to open the QVW shared file using QvSharedFile Viewer, to do that I launched the QvSharedFile Viewer, then selected "Open" which allows me to choose the file I want to transform, then when I save the selected file it gives me an error (Failed to read BlobDb "Invalid header:BlockSize 2018796100 (512 expected)). How can I resolve this?

If you are trying to repair a shared file, you should be using the following:

The Power Tools are provided as-is, and have not been updated in a while now, so if you are on the latest 12 tracks, things may not work properly, here is a link to the PowerTools area too:
