Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to 015 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our 015 file. However, remember that not every infected 015 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 015 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.

Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the 015 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 015 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 015 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
