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

The MSRCINCIDENT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MSRCINCIDENT file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MSRCINCIDENT or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected MSRCINCIDENT 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 MSRCINCIDENT files changes over time. 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MSRCINCIDENT file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MSRCINCIDENT 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move MSRCINCIDENT to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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.
