PROBLEM
The ArcGIS Desktop .style file format, which stores symbols for rendering data, and can also be imported into ArcGIS Pro, can be corrupted. Symptoms can inculde:
"The following file did not convert."
The .style files may be corrupted by concurrent access by users, by virus-scanning software accessing the file while a user has it open, or other unknown processes.
The .style file is actually a Microsoft Access database file.
