Un fichier est composé d'une architecture interne qui lui permet d'exister. [...] un fichier dispose lui aussi de sa propre mécanique qui lui permet de fonctionner. Si cette mécanique venait à être perturbée ou tronquée pour diverses raisons, le fichier serait endommagé et perdrait son intégrité. On parle alors de fichier corrompu. 1, record 1, French, - fichier%20corrompu
