The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the XWP file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 XWP or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected XWP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the XWP file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.

When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XWP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the XWP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
