  • chrash during working, cant open file anymore “unknown fileformat”

    Posted by Ronny Traufeller on March 25, 2017 at 7:06 pm

    i just spended a whole day on modeling,
    and then i had a complete system crash.

    when i now want to reopen the file,
    it gives me the error “unknown file format”

    so its corrupt now, is there any way to open the file and repair it manually?

    i would rather spend a lot time here insteat of re doing the work…

    ps: when i open the file with the sublime editor,
    i can see 57000 lines filled with zero`s. 🙁

    thx for now
    Ron

    I know you can send a file to Maxon Support to see if they can resurrect a file but 57000 lines of 0’s doesn’t sound promising
