Project is not working, neither are any of the autosaves, URGENT!

I’m working on a project and saved yesterday but suddenly today I get:
 

It’s a massively important project! None of the autosaves from yesterday work either, I tried 20!

The only that works is one from really far back with significantly less work.

I thought I found a solution, the files work in Premiere Beta! (V26.5.0 Build 3) But then Premiere just closes after about 30 seconds. No error, just closes. It’s taking time to update to latest beta - and when it does maybe it will be a workaround, however it still doesn’t work in my actual, latest version of normal Premiere.

I also tried importing into a fresh new premiere session, no luck, same error.

Please help.

    UPDATE: Adobe support was not able to help me and said there is no solution.

    Bummer, because I found a workaround. Since I rendered the file last night for client review, I opened Adobe Media Encoder and checked the log file. Each time Adobe renders, it saves a version of your file to a temp directory. I located the temp file in the directory which it used to render, and it worked. Surely the Premiere expert could have suggested this to me? In any case, solved.
