If the main thread attempts to process the file, a share violation will occur

It is a coding error that the main thread attempts to process the same file a few milliseconds later

Argent AT 3.1A-1401-A address the issue by leaving the file to next loop, by default it is a 10-seconds wait

Resolution

Upgrade to Argent Advanced Technology 3.1A-1401-A or later
