[Windows] Frequent Corruption of SecureStorage file

[mlb5000]

We have users who are losing access to their secure storage at seemingly random times, and I haven't been able to track down the issues using error logs alone. Sometimes I see errors in the logs, such as this one:

OSError: OS Error: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
, errno = 32
FileSystemException: PathAccessException: Cannot delete file, path = 'c:\users\user\appdata\roaming\inventory bot co\inventory bot\flutter_secure_storage.dat' (OS Error: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
, errno = 32)
  #0      _checkForErrorResponse (dart:io/common.dart:56)
  #1      _File._delete.<fn> (dart:io/file_impl.dart:315)
  File "<asynchronous suspension>"
  #3      DpapiJsonFileMapStorage.load (package:flutter_secure_storage_windows/src/flutter_secure_storage_windows_ffi.dart:280)
  File "<asynchronous suspension>"
  #5      FlutterSecureStorageWindows.read (package:flutter_secure_storage_windows/src/flutter_secure_storage_windows_ffi.dart:88)
  File "<asynchronous suspension>"

And the user will report their storage is just fine. Why would it try to delete the file during a load?

And then I'll encounter this sequence of errors:

WindowsException: Error 0x0000000d: Failure on CryptUnprotectData()
  #0      DpapiJsonFileMapStorage.load.<fn> (package:flutter_secure_storage_windows/src/flutter_secure_storage_windows_ffi.dart:241)
  #1      using (package:ffi/src/arena.dart:124)
  #2      DpapiJsonFileMapStorage.load (package:flutter_secure_storage_windows/src/flutter_secure_storage_windows_ffi.dart:216)
  File "<asynchronous suspension>"
  #4      FlutterSecureStorageWindows.read (package:flutter_secure_storage_windows/src/flutter_secure_storage_windows_ffi.dart:88)
  File "<asynchronous suspension>"

which is almost always a "Fatal" indicator. that they will have to completely rebuild their settings.

How can I make this more resilient to this kind of corruption on Windows?
