AN ERROR OCCURRED OPENING FILE ADOBE ANIMATE

[i wanna cry]

hello I was working on my animation last night, I put the computer into sleep mode to eat later, but later my brother unplugged the computer and when I turned the computer on again, I couldn't open the file. Can someone please help me? I worked so hard on this and I've been crying since last night and yes I tried all the methods but I still couldn't do it.

the file's corrupted.  you can try

repairing it (rename to a rar, repair with winrar, rename to repaired rar to a fla) or opening your last saved file

and you should learn to save with increasing version number appended to your file name.

hello thank for reply I tried that method many times and it still did not open. Can you please take a look, I hope the file opens for you :(((https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vD1idO3oyIXnO5CK5byVS6cIIiLPYUbE/view?usp=sharing 

I would be very happy if you could edit the file, I would even pay as long as the file is not deleted thank you so so much for again

too damaged

[i wanna cry]

Oof this is too bad, is there any other way to save the file? please im beggin u

[kglad]

not that file.

[i wanna cry]

So there's nothing else you can do, right? I'm still very surprised how it could be so damaged.

it's not unusual.  that's why experienced software users save with version numbers.  on large jobs, i have had hundreds of versions.

[i wanna cry]

i learned my lesson But it is still very sad because it is ridiculous that the file cannot be opened after so much effort. So what should I do to prevent this from happening next time?

wirh all apps (not just adobe's), save frequently with increasing version number appended to the file name. eg, for project1, save as project 1_v000, project1_v001, project1_v002 etc.

periodically close the latest version and then reopen it. if it opens, you can delete previous versions.  if it doesn't open, try to open the preceding version until you find the last uncorrupted version.
