This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the 8BCT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the 8BCT file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
