Missing Many Elements - File Cannot Be Opened

[nikol.hall]

Hi All,

So I've read quite a bit and know this is a common problem but I am getting the following error:

I have followed the steps from this article, the problem is that when I try to even open my backups it says too many elements are missing and I'm still back where I started.  Is there some way around this???? I don't want to lose all that work!!!!

Thanks in advance.

Hi @nikol.hall,

Are you working in Central work-shared model?? if yes, try to create a new central model from other users who are not faced this problem. Also make sure that links/attachments used in your projects are available in the same directory.

Or try to rename and relocate your project in some other location and open.

If its not solve your problem then go to this LINK, it may help you.

Thanks for the reply @PrathapSekar.  

I am not working in a Central work-shared model unfortunately.  I have tried to rename it in a different location and that did not help.  Thanks for the suggestions!
