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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CDSX file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected CDSX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.

This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CDSX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
