PLEASE I really need help!!!
« on: January 18, 2017, 10:46:03 am »
I have the 16.01 CB version, i was finishing my project right now and saved it (i also changed the setting for projects to be saved every 30 seconds, so i have a file.saved with the same name as my project), my file is not of a size 0, however when i open it, it's empty, nothing, I've spent almost a month on this project and i need to handle it these days. PLEASE HELP?? :'(        ???

Operating system?

be saved every 30 second
not that great, i would use 2 or 5 min.

my file is not of a size 0, however when i open it, it's empty
where do open the file? Is it a project file or a source file?
What if you open the file in a text editor?
What was the cause of this? Sudden shutdown? Crash?

so i have a file.saved with the same name as my project
make a copy of both files and rename the .saved to .cbp and try to open it

Use a cvs like git next time you make a important project and commit your work regularly

Thanks a lot for your reply :) I fixed it, I opened the saved file using a text editor NotePad++ and my source code was there
