Seems like your file got corrupted. Are you working off a thumb drive? (If so, do not do that, it's risky.) You can try to File->Import->Merge the contents into a new scene. If you can see any of the objects in the merge menu, that means that possibly one of your objects is corrupted. Attempting to import that object will likely crash the import, but you can salvage your other parts.
But if the scene is so simple it's not worth salvaging, and you are not working off something like a thumb drive, possibly you need to reboot your machine. Perhaps there's a copy of 3dsmax in your task manager that is locked up or interfering.
Beyond that, my best guess is your drive has a bad sector or the file was closed before it was done saving. You can check the autobacks to see if any of them open. If none of them do, then something is up on the system level. This article may help you.
