The MX5 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MX5 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.

Older version of MX5 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MX5 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Acoustica, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MX5 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move MX5 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MX5 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MX5 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MX5 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
