Hi @erfan32450892sdwh,

 

Thanks for reaching out. It looks like your Adobe Illustrator (.ai) file has been corrupted or overwritten with a long string of text that doesn't appear to be related to your original artwork. Unfortunately, this type of issue can occur for various reasons, including software glitches or file corruption.

 

Would you mind sharing a few details so we can further investigate the issue:

  • Make sure that the file extension of your file is still ".ai" and not ".cod" or any other extension. If it's not ".ai," try changing it back to ".ai" and then attempt to open it in Adobe Illustrator.
  • Please share the file with us for further investigation
  • Please confirm where your files are saved: Network Drive/ System HDD/ Shared Folder on System /External HDD.
  •  

To prevent future occurrences, it's a good practice to regularly back up your work, both locally and in the cloud so that you have multiple copies of your files.

 

We look forward to receiving the file and collaborating with you on this issue.

 

Best regards,

Anshul Saini
