So I started using Maya a couple of weeks ago and I'm modelling a rifle just to practice. I was trying to set up UV's and Maya froze so I terminated it through the task manager thinking I could just re open any of the many saves I had, I tried to do that and to my surprise they're all bad, they're all missing objects both from the scene and the outliner, like if they never existed, and the remaining objects in the scene are colored green. The file size of the ASCII remains the same. I don't know what happened and I really want to know if there is a way to fix it. what is weird is that all of my other saves are like this too, I had 50 incremental saves, they're all the same. I tried other versions of the ASCII, older ones, and same problem. I really want to know if this can be fixed before I go jump off a roof.
Here's what the script editor says:

My other posts kept getting removed as spam, I guess because I attached the ASCII file.
Please help ๐

Hi!
What I recommend:
1. Delete history if not needed anymore.
Although it seems you do this from time to time I found some meshes inside group "polySurface424" that have a lot of history ("polySurface622", "polySurface617",...), this should be avoided.
2. Use custom names and maybe Namespaces to make sure names are unique.
Hi @mspeer, not sure if you're around but the same thing happened to me just now (and of course, it's my course final that's due tomorrow!). Like others, my incremental saves are all the same so that's no help. I'd be so grateful if you could take a look at it, see if there's anything to save. https://www.dropbox.com/s/7jjnlyc7yh0t01k/hsm_final_press.0059.ma?dl=0 (too big to upload here). If not, no worries! Thanks for any help/advice you can give
Actually, I think I figured it out? Enough to get most of my stuff back, anyway...sure wish I knew what caused it!!
Hi!
There seem to be some data missing in this scene that can't be recovered, for example "pCylinder1" does not have any faces/vertices.
The only option in this case is:
1) Import the scene into a new scene to make sure that at least the scene settings are correct.
2) Assign any material to the objects.
3) Unhide objects to make them visible.
I created the attached scene by following these steps.
hi,i have a new error.
TypeError: file D:\maya2018\Maya2018\Python\lib\site-packages\maya\app\renderSetup\model\fileLoadMonitor.py line 101: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__'
There is a problem with my maya2018. Various problems always occur. Do I need to reinstall?
Hi!
Is this a scene error or a general error when you open Maya?
Before you reinstall Maya or your OS:
Try a reset of your Maya Preferences
a) Rename the folder prefs in folder 2020 to something like prefs_backup, or the folder 2020 to 2020_backup
(Don't copy preferences from previous Maya versions.)
b) For a complete reset of ALL Preferences, rename the maya folder to maya_backup.
bro everything is just gone idk what happened its just gone after i crashed after using uv unwrapping
Hi!
@Anonymous
Recovered and cleaned scene attached (more details in a private message).
Hi mspeer,
I've just had Maya crash on me and lots of meshes disappearing and whenever I open the file I get the "Error loading file"
Could you have a look into it please?
Hi!
The file is corrupted and there is a lot of data missing that can't be recovered.
I "repaired" the file to make it stable again, but there can't be done more, sorry.
Hey @mspeer,
It's so nice of you helping those people... I too have a problem but not very similar to that older posts... The Maya file attached is about 750 KB and I'm sure the file is not empty... but when opened it shows nothing, no objects in the outliner, no error message.. just nothing... could you please help me...
I just noticed two things... I hope that helps... 1, I use a student version, every time I open a file, there used to be a confirmation dialogue, but now there is nothing. 2, I have a new text document in the folder near to my Maya file... it just popped out nowhere... The file name is openmayaerrorlog...
Any suggestion on how to resolve this would be helpful

Use a text editor and delete the setAttr commands with the NaNs. Then you'll get something when you load the file.
