The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners.

Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the DOCMHTML file again. However, some background programs may block the DOCMHTML file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
