Method 1: Catalog Content Update
The simplest solution to the problem under consideration is to update the contents of the folder. To do this, it is enough to click on the button with a circular arrow on the right side of the address string.
You can also use the F5 key. After this operation, check whether the problem file has disappeared - most likely it will happen.
Method 2: Transfer to the USB
You can also solve the problem using a removable flash drive: sometimes the poor data is transferred to it, and then get rid of them by formatting.
- Open the two windows "Explorer": in the first folder with problem information, in the second - the root directory of the flash drive.
- Click once with the left mouse button on the unsuccessful file, then clamp the Shift key and drag it to the USB flash drive.
- If this operation has worked, copy all the important data from the drive and format it.

Method 3: Using Archiver
Also, to eliminate the problem under consideration, you can use the Archiver Program: the algorithms of most such applications recognize failed data as workable, so their compression should not cause an error. The most valuable option is to delete files after archiving, which is suitable for solving our today's task. As an example, we use 7-zip.
- Through the Application File Manager, open the required directory. In some cases, a regular removal can work: try selecting the file, use the SHIFT + DELETE key combination and confirm the operation.
If you worked, congratulations, if not, continue the execution of the instruction.
- Highlight the data and click "Add" in the toolbar.
- In the archive creation window, check the option "Delete files after compression", you can leave the remaining parameters by default, then click OK.
- After the operation is completed, close the program and delete the received 7Z file - with this action no longer have problems.
Similar features are available in other archivers, not only in 7-zip.
