Hi

 

The problem that you are facing is due to a simple mistake which may occur to anyone at any time.

 

The error "Cannot overwrite source file(s)!" is being shown to you because you have selected the output destination of the converted music to the same destination to the origin of the main files, thus the converted files are trying to replace the original files. What you need to do is

 

Change the destination of the converted files and it will solve your problem.

Check the following before you can do the conversion:

• Check that the file you want to convert is not corrupt
• Check the file type is it a valid type to convert
• Check the output path where you want to save the file after conversion
• Rename the output file instead of using the same file name
