Corrupted Cat. Holding ALT doesn't work to start LRC

Question

Catalog corrupted.  Holding ALT and double clicking on the LRC icon does nothing.  How to get LRC to run and select a previous good catalog.  Also, no file in \users\Rick\Pictures\Lightroom with .LOCK in the directory, even looking for hidden files.

Corrupted catalog: restore a recent backup of this catalog file. Unzip the backup catalog, copy the unzipped catalog to a new empty folder and paste it in that folder, then double-click on it to open it.
