Filebox appears on icon and cannot open

[cj0817]

I'm using Windows 10 - most of my adobe files have a filebox icon on them and I cannot open the files. See attached image. Some of the files are fine. I have been trying to resolve this for over a year. Any suggestions?

Thank you for any help!

I'm not sure if this will be applicable to anyone but me.  When I reinstalled windows 11, there was a notification when I opened onedrive that my permissions had been changed.  I went and right clicked on the onedrive in the file explorer and unclicked the read only box.  I can now open my files, where as before all my files had the brown box in front of the file and I could not open any of them.
