Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FRDOC file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FRDOC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FRDOC or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FRDOC 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 FRDOC 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FRDOC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file FRDOC except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the FRDOC file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FRDOC file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FRDOC file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
