There was no trace of me being on that day, and after watching multiple tutorilas of hoe to get it back, There was nothing. The worst part is that earlier that day, The app did crash, and there was a recovery file of my work! Please help me get it back!

    open AutoRecoverFilenames.txt* and see if there was a saved file and, if so, check the folder location listed

     

    *

    win: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\<animate version>\en_US\Configuration

    mac: Users/<username>/Application Support/Adobe/<animate/flash version>/en_US/Configuration/

     

    p.s. i'm not sure now long it's going to take you to learn, but save your fla's frequently with increasing version number appended to its name.
