Below is a list of the common error codes related to file move, copy and delete operations. An error code dose not mean an error in the application or on your system. Error codes are usually displayed, because the source or target files are opened in another application (in use), or because the user account that is used to start our tool does not have sufficient privileges to modify them. A poor antivirus tool may also be the cause of an error by blocking access to files and preventing the normal operation of your system.
Look up the error code below for explanation.
