ArcGIS Desktop Connection – Solving General Function Failure When Connecting to Database

arcgis-10.3arcgis-desktopconnectionfile-geodatabase

I am trying to access the file geodatabase and I get a message of General Function Failure: failed to connect to database. I can access other file geodatasabses, the problem is only with this one. I was doing Network Analysis in this file geodatabase, in case it's relevant.

I could not find any relevant solutions. Do you have any idea what could be the reason?

I am using ArcGIS Desktop 10.3.
