Hello,
I have been having quite an issue with my revit file today. A project I have been working on since september has been acting very strangely today. I was regularly getting an error message saying I had insufficient memory to perform tasks and so reduced the number of 3d views and removed any additional unneeded views.
I have also now realised that the time stamp in the windows folder had not updated since the 9th of March (5 days ago) despite working on it every day since then, but when opening it it had saved the previous day's work. I then 'Saved As' and the time stamp then changed, however after saving the file an hour after this the time stamp did not update. It has been mentioned to me that this might be because the file is corrupted and that I need to go back to a version before the error occurred which means losing over 5 days of work.
I'm really hoping this is an easy fix as its my masters design project!!
I can attach the file if this would help (but its quite large and messy!!)

Have you tried to reinstate the latest backup?
All else failing, give Autodesk a holler - they have been known to straighten out corrupt files. It isn't quick, though......
Hi,
Thanks for the link! The date modified does appear correctly so hopefully just windows being funny.
By reinstating do you mean opening one of the backup .001 files?
Also do you think it sounds like my file is corrupted?
Thanks,
Jess
Did you try the link? It sounds like that could be the issue - I hope that it is!
To reinstate a backup - open, and save it with a new name (without the numbers). The beauty of Revit's backup system is that each backup saves a certain stage of your work. So if Plan A fails, then you can go on to Plan B and hopefully lose less than 5 days of work.
I remember what Masters' projects were like LOL!!
Good luck!
(if my reply solved your issue, can you mark it as an accepted solution please?)
