corrupted file Adobe Animate

[bili01]

Hello!

I have been working on an animation in adobe animate 2022. When I try to retrieve the file I click on my recents but the file that I have been working on was not there. To retrieve my file I clicked open but could not click into my file. A tab popped up informing me of a file corruption, sometimes this occurs, but all I have to do is restart the application but this time when I restarted Adobe animate I could not access the file I have been working on for so long.

The file is called roughbody.fla

I worked on it yesterday 15:13. I think there has been an attempt to recover this file that is why there is another file called RECOVER_roughbody.fla. I believe this is also my file. I hope this makes sense.

If anyone knows how to help me retrieve this file please do get in touch. 

Thank you,

Bili

p.s. learn to save your files with increasing version name appended (eg, project1_v000.fla, project1_v001.fla etc). periodically close and reopen the latest version to confirm it's not corrupted. you can then delete previous versions.
