You forgot to share a CR3 file.

The problem is that it wont even load upto dropbox or google drive because the file is not readable

What did you do to it?

Does it happen with files straight out of the camera?

[YK]

yes, I actually tried 2 types of files for this sake, 1 was Craw, and then the regular raw, both settings are on th ecamera

but both show as CR3 on the computer, and they both wont open anywhere straight out of the sd card as well as copied onto the windows desktop.

Can EXIFTool open them and extract the exif info?

What camera is this from?

They are just container files that contain Canon raw data. The files for each camera are subtly different, so your software has to understand the format for your particular camera to read them properly.

If the DPP version for your camera cannot read them, either you have a camera problem or something in your workflow is corrupting them along the way.

Have you tried a new full-size* card freshly low-level formatted in the camera?

*i.e., not a micro SD with adapter, those are bad juju for Canon cameras.

gonna try the new SD card today
