A small fraction of NEF files are not recognised by my Photoshop Elements, and will not open.

Question

A small fraction of NEF files from a Nikon Z6 are not recognised by my Photoshop Elements and therefore will not open after I have copied them to my hard drive. Elements 2020 says it does not recognise the file? Is there any way to fix these files or get them so I can open them? Any ideas for a cause of this. Nikon said to reformat my storage disk in the camera but that did not seem to help. Thank you!

Yes:  corrupt meta data.  My drone, when I first got it, produced corrupt meta data of the images and videos.    I downloaded some meta data fixer app (Paid $29 for it) app (this was last year)   and it took care of the problem.
