The most common causes of data corruption and loss are; Power outages or other power-related problems and  Improper shutdowns. Thus results to a corrupted files and or missing.

1. Implement a comprehensive Backup and Recovery Solution and use it regularly. Always scan/update anti-virus software your computer and

2. Perform the small amount of regular maintenance.

3. Power outages and other power problems — surges, spikes, brownouts, and the like — can not only cause data corruption but damage your hardware. So I suggest you to use UPS “uninterruptible power supply” to delay the power of shutting down your computer so you have time to properly shut down your pc.

4. Lastly, to avoid data loss and corruption, always do save what you are doing from time to time.
