One possibility--perhaps less likely than a bug in NetBeans, but still worth considering--is a failing hard drive or SSD drive. It might be a good time to take a backup of your files, just in case.

It is part of a Java Web Application project file and I can guarantee that the file is not opened in any other application. I don't have any antivirus program other than Windows Defender and I don't have a virus on my computer.
