Can't open a file

Sooooo, I've been working on a cool animation, and the other day, I tried to open the file and it said there was an error when Animate tried to open it.  It's only with that one file.  I tried uninstalling the application and reinstalling it, but to no avail?  Could anyone, possibly a staff member, please help me with this?  Here's a link to the file on Google Drive: 1)Scooter.fla - Google Drive

I've had the file saved on my computer, btw.

Hi.

I tried that trick of:

- renaming the .fla to .zip;

- opening the .zip up in a software like WinRAR;

- choosing the option to repair the .zip;

- and then renaming it back to .fla.

And it worked.

Here is the link: rebuilt.1)Scooter.zip

I hope it helps.

Regards,

JC
