Here's what happened:</P><P>- I tried opening it once, twice and thrice for it to just not open at all.</P><P>-I managed to get it open for a few seconds, and it suddenly crashed.</P><P>-Next thing I know, my file is 0kb and when I try to open, it says "unrecognized file type".</P><P>It generated however a .mba file that I don't know what I can do with.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>It has crashed before and even generated a mba but I had no issues opening it back up again.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Is my file lost forever, or can I do something to recover it? I'm fairly new to Maya so this was my first big project. Does maya automatically back it up?</P><P>I can't even share it because dropbox keeps saying it is an empty file.</P><P>Here is the mba file: <A href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/8mebcj3bjzd5e1p/apartment.mba01556?dl=0" target="_blank">https://www.dropbox.com/s/8mebcj3bjzd5e1p/apartment.mba01556?dl=0</A></P> Fri, 04 Jun 2021 14:12:01 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-forum/help-with-possibly-corrupted-file/m-p/10364082#M10930 ead1797 2021-06-04T14:12:01Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-forum/help-with-possibly-corrupted-file/m-p/10364116#M10931 <P>I managed to find my backup in the Temp file.</P> Fri, 04 Jun 2021 14:23:44 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-forum/help-with-possibly-corrupted-file/m-p/10364116#M10931 ead1797 2021-06-04T14:23:44Z
