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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The MIS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to MIS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MIS file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected MIS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MIS file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MIS files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MIS 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. Copying the MIS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the MIS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MIS file again. 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.
