csv cannot be read multi-threaded

I have downloaded file zip, when I am Unzipped there is file in csv format and all data coming in single cell/row with double inverted comma .

 
 

there are garbage records in first 4 rows and actual data starting from 5th row

 

I have set up data import line from 5th row

 

when running I am getting error 

 

Error 1:

"Data.csv cannot be read multi-threaded (cannot synchronize on record boundaries); set the 'Force Single Threaded' option and run again"

I tried to fix Delimiters by double inverted comma ( " ) but its giving another error

Error 2:

"Input Data (4): Cannot use a quote character as a field delimiter: "

Hi @faisal9999 have you tried the single threaded option it's a configuration option in the Input Data Tool?
