When I try to open a project im working on I get this message on the screen.

What has happend, and is it possible to restore my project?

@jbackstrom71 Can you please try the below?

1. Close Fusion
2. open Fusion again
3. Go into offline mode (either use the switch on the top right corner) or disconnect internet
4. Now are you able to open this file? If so go ahead and make a small change to it and save it
5. Now go back online
6. Is the file now "fixed"?

@jbackstrom71 @Just to confirm where you able to open it when in offline or the error is up in offline mode as well?

I can't find the file on my computer

@jbackstrom71 Can you clarify which file you cannot find in this path? Can you post an image of what you see? Are you not able to see the F folder?

Windows:  C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\<alphanumerical folder>\W.login\

I found the file, with some help. But the only version I can open is an earlier version, so much of my work is lost.

@jbackstrom71 The version that you are able to open, when was that saved? Between then and now is this the only file that is impacted or any designs on your machine is impacted? 

[jbackstrom71]

That file was saved 12/17/23. Thats the only file thats impacted.
