The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file OMLOG or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover OMLOG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of OMLOG 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular OMLOG file corruption.

When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file OMLOG 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move OMLOG to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the OMLOG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OMLOG file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
