Hi,

I was working on illustrator and saved my file as an AIC. However, I went back to open my file and it was an older version of the work I did. All the more recent work disappeared and I tried to check version history but it was not there as well. Is there a way to recover my file still?

Hi @tina_6267,

 

Thanks for reaching out, and I'm really sorry to hear about your file. I know how stressful it can be to lose your recent work. Could you please confirm which version of Illustrator you're using and also share the details of your operating system?

Additionally, if your AIC file was saved as a cloud document, I'd recommend checking the version history to see if you can restore an earlier state that includes your recent changes. You can refer to this article for guidance on how to view and restore versions: https://adobe.ly/44uOvZ5

Please let me know if this helps or if you're still facing issues after checking.

 

Looking forward to your update so we can assist you further!

Hi @Abhishek Rao ,

I'm using Illustrator 29.6.1 and my operating system is macOS Sequoia 15.5

I tried going back on the version history but it did not show up.

Hi @tina_6267,

 

Thanks for confirming the details. I'm checking this with the product team to see if there's any possibility of recovery in this case. While it may be a long shot, I just want to explore every option for you.

I'll reach back as soon as I hear back from them with any updates.

 

Appreciate your patience in the meantime!

Abhishek
