The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to L16 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the L16 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected L16 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of L16 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.

The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file L16 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move L16 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the L16 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the L16 file again. However, some background programs may block the L16 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
