recently I have started getting the error message shown below.is there a way to correct this issue?

Try uninstalling completely. Use RevoUninstaller to make sure all files are wiped out and then re-install. Looks like the VST scanner file is corrupt. Either that or there is a plugin Acid is trying to scan which may be a crack and it is rejecting it. Not sure about the latter but try the first suggestion.

Hi

There is no need to uninstall the software.

The issue is your Antivirus (AV) is blocking access to the required files/folders due to its File/Folder/Ransomware protection.

This is known to occur with several AV's - AVG, Avast, Bit Defender and Windows Defender to name the four I know of.

How you do this depends on your AV.

You may also have other 'side effects' from your AV - see this message from Magix.

Did you try and disable built in Windows defender?

Select Start  > Settings  > Update & Security  > Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Manage settings (or Virus & threat protection settings in previous versions of Windows 10).

Switch Real-time protection to Off.

Obviously this method is a temporary measure as you need anti virus protection.
