Das Problem trat spontan in Indesign 2024 (19.4) auf. Neuinstallation hilft nicht. Jemand eine Idee, wie ich die Datei retten kann?
By @agenturimturm
Try to export the file to IDML, then open. Normally, it should remove external plugin dependencies. (Unless this error is a new bug similar to the one that caused problems between InDesign 19.2 and 19.3 versions.) Anyway, try IDML and see if it solves the issue.

the problem occurs when i try to open the indesign file. so no way to export to idml.
i tryed https://ixsavebackgenerator.de/idsb/web/service/index_en.jsp for converting indd to idml online, but this does not work either – because the file is corrupted.

There is a way to export an IDML file without opening it:
// blindOpen_and_IDML-Export.jsx
var _file = File.openDialog("InDesign-Datei"); // Auswahl einer Datei
if(_file != null)
{
var d = app.open(_file, false); // Öffnen der Datei, ohne sie anzuzeigen
d.exportFile(ExportFormat.INDESIGN_MARKUP, File(_file.fullName.replace(/.indd$/i,'.idml'))); // Export im IDML-Format
d.close(SaveOptions.NO); // Schließen ohne zu sichern
}
Save this code in a text file and change it ending to .js
Put it there, where your scripts are and let it run and follow the instructions.
Did you embed the PNG file or did you link it as external asset? Embedding is the main cause of corrupted file.
Why do you use PNG? I recommend always never to use it in InDesign as itcauses often problems. If it has transparency, use PSD.

Well. It didn't work out, unfortunately.
When I attempted to export the document to IDML, InDesign got stuck on activating fonts in Background Tasks. Not sure why as all fonts were missing, but I didn't get a chance to explore it further.
After relaunching InDesign, I couldn't open this document anymore. InDesign crashed on attempt to open this file (just like it crashed when opening the other one.)

Reinstalling rarely fixes everything - you can do a complete reinstall using the
