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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner.

This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GRADIENTLIBRARY files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.

The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move GRADIENTLIBRARY to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with 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 GRADIENTLIBRARY file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
