Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I'm not sure why, but every computer I try to import the keys to says the pfx
is invalid. I have it on a USB flash drive, which every computer I've tried
can use perfectly. Is it possible that a file on a flash drive could have
some sort of single-bit error on it? In the past, the first time I
reinstalled Windows, the key imported just fine, but now it doesn't work.
