Help - Revit File Corruption Error

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

Please can I can get some urgent expertise on the following.

 

I've been working on a project in Revit and recently started to get corruption messages.

 

For instance, I was changing a material on a wall and the message occurred and offered me the option to save and recover the file. After doing this, I couldn't open the recovery file or any of the backup files that Revit automatic creates so I lost half a day's work and had to start again.

 

To try and avoid this problem again, instead, I kept "saving as" different versions just in case. However, closing Revit down at the end fo a days work, I came into work the following morning to open my latest version (V6) and the following message occurred "Data in File ****is corrupt and needs to be manually recovered. (I can still see the model as a thumbnail when you select the file before opening so the data must still be there)

 

Please can someone provide a solution to this as I have a deadline that I'm going to miss if I can't retrieve all the work I've done?

 

Any support would be very much appreciated.

 

Many thanks

 

Nat
