File type inode/x-corrupted
Solution 1
Maybe late but this sometimes happen when nested permissions violate each other. For example suppose we have this folders structure:
Folder1 :
File1
Meaning we have File1 inside Folder1. Now if I set permission for Folder1 as:
chmod 444 Folder1
and for File1:
chmod 777 File1
the OS detects a violation and the file manager can't access File1. Because permission of File1 is outside the permitted scope of Folder1.
So check the containing folder and also the file itself. Good luck
Solution 2
I had this same problem with a flash drive. In order to get it to work I had to set the permissions this way /
chmod 771 foldername
I hope that this is helpful for you. It was terrible when I thought that the files and folders on my 128GB flashdrive were corrupted.
