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.

Sometimes virus-infected MP4;V=1 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of MP4;V=1 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MP4;V=1 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.

This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the MP4;V=1 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MP4;V=1 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
