What version of OpenFlash Manager are you running? v1.21.0 is the newest. Also, make sure you are using a USB 1.0 port. USB 2.0 can be a little glitchy on some computers.

It's same ...it can't read info from the device and show 'Error in opening file' on the left bottom corner.
It was ok but after I uploaded the file into it.

If openflash manager is connecting to oft and it saying no tune files or original files present.

of thats windows 8 have you loaded windows 8 patch from oft wnlads site ?

try going to upload data and see if you can erase tune files, if no good try below

Then you may be able to try Erasing the entire oft using the erase function.

Just confiming your car is running ok as if the erase of oft is sucessfull you will have to marry up the oft to your car again by reading in an original rom from a working car.

Thanks for your help

Mate i cannot give you a 100% guarantee something wont go wrong.

but it looks like that the only option left if you try the ERASE function and oft says load original tune

try the ERASE DATA option with oft plugged into computer connected to internet first.

hopefully its just some weird mismatch between old oft software in tablet and the new ofm , just a long shot try loading the updated template file 7.2 i think from oft site

you have not got oft plugged into computer and car at same time as that does not work ?

this is when i like to have my backup device a tactrix cable handy
