When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file HEXSEL 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.

If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
