Correct answer kglad

if it's only one fla, it's probably corrupt.

you can try:

1. renaming to a rar

2. using winrar to repair it

3. rename the repaired rar to a fla

4. try opening the repaired fla

ok, but when i do that a get a new message saying this happens:

! C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Aniamtion Folder\Personal Animations\Ash - Copy.fla: Corrupt header is found

! C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Aniamtion Folder\Personal Animations\Ash - Copy.fla: No files repaired

and the original page says this:
"

---> RAR

Searching for recovery record

---> recovery record not found

Searching for recovery record

---> recovery record not found

Build C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Aniamtion Folder\Personal Animations\rebuilt.Ash - Copy.rar

Done"

see if you can recover assets from the unrared file and start over, and learn to save back-ups with increasing version numbers.
