Hi there,

 

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing version of the OS & Illustrator? Are these files saved on a local drive or on a network?

If they are on network, you may copy them on a local drive and try to open them. You may also check out this help article and follow the troubleshooting given here to recover the document. Let us know if it helps.

 

Regards,

Ashutosh

Thanks for sharing the details. Please update your InDesign to the latest version of Adobe InDesign and then try to open the files. If you do not wish to remove the version 2015 from your machine, uncheck the option "Remove Old Versions" while upgrading it to the latest version. Let us know if it helps. Thanks!

Just because Illustrator allows some operations doesn't mean it's the correct working technique.

Do not work with the embedded file system in Illustrator. This process is the cause of most document corruption.

You can fix this as follows. Do the same on a computer with more powerful hardware than your system. Do not check the PDF Editable function while saving. If there are files embedded, work them as external documents, with links.

If not private, send me this document as WETRANSFER and I'll try to open it.
