However, remember that not every infected LS3PROJ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the LS3PROJ 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 file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly.

This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the LS3PROJ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file LS3PROJ to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
