Recover Dimension file from a .tmp

Question

Hey there - unfortunately Windows crashed on me and I lost my Dimension file.

I can still see my last saved version of it in my file explorer, however, when I attempt to open it, it says Unable to Open Document. I can see there is a .tmp file in the folder with an identical file size. Am I able to recover using this?

I've tried opening it in Dimension with no luck. I've also tried duplicating both files, changing the file extensions, etc and still no luck. Please send help!

the asset in your temp folder is not a Dn but just working out Dimension uses as it trys to rendor a scene... that file is worthless now which is why its in the temp folder

the other issue of the crash will be down to your system unable to handle the load of rendoring... it also looks like your Dn file was shared across a network share of some kind at the time which would cause a crash on almost any Windows system reguardless of other hardware
