TestGenerator file (..) is read only / cannot open

Hi,
I would like to backtest USD JPY on every tick.
I downloaded just like I did with EUR USD(which works).
But now with U/J I get the following message:
TestGenerator file (...) is read only
/ cannot open
Edit:
I've seen that some people had the same issue, with other symbols
I am using Ic markets as broker, and the symbol is quite general written (USDJPY).
I downloaded a full year of data, on all timeframes (so I must have the minimum 100 bars for 4h).
Why does in my tester > history folder a file appears, that is so different to all?!
USDJPY240_1.fxt?! all others are like USDJPYxxx_0.fxt
This is only for the timeframe, that I wanted to use for my bt.
