My illustrator file opens empty after my computer loss power.

Here is the thumbnail of my illustrator file. I can see my work there but when I open it there is this text import option. I leave it as is and press ok.

And my file opens empty.

I have attached the original file. I appreciate your help in advance.

Does the file open in Acrobat? If that is the case, there is a better chance to recover at some parts of the file. Might not be very well editable.

What is the file size? Reasonable?

Attachments don't work here. Please put the file on Dropbox or Creative Cloud or the like and post a link.

@Anshul_Saini can you please try and help?

Hi @Aaron238999471t88,

Thanks for your patience. I'm sorry to inform you that the file was not properly and is corrupted beyond recovery. Unfortunately, the file appears to be empty and doesn't have any backend code as well. Sudden power loss can result in file corruption.

Best,

Anshul Saini
