An Unknown error occurred while opening the project

[fwefewgewgef]

Hello all, hoping someone has a solution as Google has finally failed me.

I've recently hit a problem with Premiere and the above error, which not only occurs on my current file, but also on all of the autosaves. Do anyone know any solutions to this, as all existing ones seem to point towards the autosaves?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Thanks for the quick response, Mohsenagha! Will email you the project to you right away.

Fingers crossed you can sort it, as I'm really not looking forward to putting the project back together from scratch.

Hello Mohsen_Aghaei,

Thank you for helping so many people on the adobe forums.  I keep receiving a strange message (see attached screenshot)every time I try and open my project.  I am adding a screenshot.  We have spent hours on this project and would appreciate any guidance.  You definitely seem like a hero on the forums.  Thank you in advance for any and all help.

Hi Mohsen!

Any chance you are still able to solve this issue with projects not opening?

Things were working ok until this morning when I tried to open the project, "unknown error" message pops up and I just can't seem to get into the project...

Seems like reocurring thing for premiere but I'm kind of out of options at the moment.

Please let me know if you are still around, would absolutely be a life saver.

Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.

Yousuke

Hi Mohsenagha - I just emailed you a copy of a project file that just started reporting this error when opening this morning. 

If you can help out, I would greatly appreciate it!  And if it's a pretty user-friendly process, maybe share your work-around w/ the rest of us here?

Many thanks!!

[Enlightened_Symphony6C2B]

Thank you Mohsenagha.  Project works perfectly now!
