The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The 014 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to 014 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 014 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected 014 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the 014 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair 014 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Igor Pavlov help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 014 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the 014 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 014 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 014 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
