The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 VCXITEMS or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected VCXITEMS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the VCXITEMS files changes over time. 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.

Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VCXITEMS file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
