When you try to update a target compressed file, if it already exists and is occupied, it can cause the update to fail. In the following, I will explain in detail from the aspects of closing the file occupation process, restarting the computer, changing the name, and checking the file permissions.
Close the file occupation process. First, you need to determine which process is consuming the target compressed file. You can use the following steps to close the process. Open Task Manager: Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open Task Manager. Switch to the Processes tab: Select the Processes tab in Task Manager. Find the process that is occupying the object: Browse the list of processes to find any processes related to the object. You can use information such as the file name and disk usage to determine the situation. End Process: Select the process that occupies the target file, and then click the End Task button to close the process. Try updating the file: After closing the occupation process, you should now be able to try updating the file and see if that succeeds.
Restart your computer. If you still can't update the target compressed file after closing the process that is taking up the file, you can try restarting your computer. A reboot cleans up the system's temporary data and processes, freeing up the occupation of the target file. After the reboot is complete, try updating the target compressed file again.
Change the name of the target file. If the above methods don't work, you can try changing the name of the target file. Change the old name of the file to a different name, and then try updating the file again. Doing so bypasses the issue of the file being occupied, because after changing the name, the file will be treated as a new file and will not be occupied by an open process.
Check file permissions. Finally, make sure that you have enough file permissions to update the target compressed file. Sometimes, if a user account doesn't have sufficient permissions to modify a file, it can cause the update to fail. You can try running the compression software with an administrator account, or you can fix this by modifying the file permissions.
In summary, when the target compressed file already exists and is occupied and the update fails, you can try to close the file occupation process, restart the computer, change the file name, use other compression software, or check the file permissions to solve the problem.
