Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ONECACHE file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The ONECACHE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ONECACHE file. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ONECACHE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ONECACHE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of ONECACHE 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 program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ONECACHE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move ONECACHE to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ONECACHE to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
