Had you saved locally during that day? If so, you should be able to go back to an earlier version of the local file. (Start Revit,
go to File | Backups..., and navigate to the backup directory of the local file.) Since local save is generally very quick, it is
recommended that you do it often even if you aren't saving to central.
For non-workset files it is sometimes possible to recover by running the journal file. For workset files it might also be possible
but is less likely to work because of changes in the central file. Search AUGI for discussions on how to use the journal file to
recover from a crash.

Revit incurred an error and shut down, I hadn't saved to the central file for more than a day. I have my file set to save to the
central file every hour, but I don't know how to recover the lost information. There is a whole folder titled backup files, but
Revit won't open any of them. How do I recover what was lost?
