Hi there,

Sorry to hear about the error, this usually occurs if a psd has gone corrupt. Could you please let us know the operating system you're working on?

Also, where did you save the file local drive or external drive/network?

 

Please try the recovery steps mentioned here and let us know if you're able to recover the file: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/file-recovery-photoshop.html
