Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OMX file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 OMX or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover OMX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of OMX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged OMX files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Ots Labs help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OMX files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the OMX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. 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 OMX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
