Fatal Error. Attempting to save in C:/Users/AppData/Local/Temp/GGPC.20200723.922.ma

I have been having issues with a Maya 2020 scene that I am unable to open and am getting the message Fatal Error. Attempting to save in C:/Users/AppData/Local/Temp/GGPC.20200723.922.ma

I did not have any issues saving this file I only get the error when I tried to open it. When this issue occurred I worked on a previous version of the scene for a few days without any issues then the Fatal error message returned again and I am unable to access the scene. I do not have any issues opening a blank scene in Maya and have been working with Maya on the same computer for a couple of years and this issue has never occurred before.

I have deleted preferences, uninstalled and reinstalled Maya and restarted my computer multiple times but am still getting the same error. I also tried to locate the .dll file suggested here: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/arnold/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Attempting-to-save-in-AppData-Local-Temp-user-when-launching-Maya-LT-2018.html but do not seem to have it in my system. I’m not sure how to stop this error from occurring now. Can somebody please help!

Here are my computer specs:

Intel Core i7-8700 CPU @3.20GHz

Nividia GeForce RTX 2070

Is there a CER report number that was submitted ?

any crash report files in your %TEMP% directory ?

having the info of where Maya is crashing can help direct actions to resolve

When the fatal error comes up Maya immediately crashes and sends a file to the temp location. When I try to open this file the same thing happens- fatal error message and then a file is sent to the Temp location.

I have attached a photo of the CER report message- the first one is from the crash of the original file, the second one is of the crash when I opened the temp file after the fatal error crash.
