Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our OO3 file. However, remember that not every infected OO3 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of OO3 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.

When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OO3 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move OO3 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file OO3 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OO3 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
