When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file X-MUSEPACK 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. Copying the X-MUSEPACK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file X-MUSEPACK to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the X-MUSEPACK file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
