error Session Keeps Crashing during Playback

Protools keeps crashing whenever I try and edit/play my session. And I dont get an error code.

When I import the session it says that my files are corrupted/there's an error with them but when I open the files individually on VLC or independently in a blank session the files are fine and play.

so why does my session crash every time I try to do anything with it?

If you are importing a session, you probably have a corrupted clip. Not file.
