Every single premiere cc project file I have including my auto-save prj files will not load. I get the error message "The Project Appears to be Damaged, it can not be opened". This is for all my Premiere CC Projects. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Premiere with no avail. Is there anything I can do in order to salvage these corrupt files and the work/effort associated with them?
Thanks, Jim--I've checked through the XML in ExtendScript (couldn't get XML Wrench on a Mac), but always get the same "damaged/outdated" message when trying to open the project again in Premiere. (If XML Wrench has some spiffy built-in debugging thing, I'll [try to] try it, but beyond unclosed tags/basic errors, I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be looking for in there.)
As it is, I ended up just manually reconstructing the main sequence I needed by laying the footage over a fine cut export. I'm tempted to think that another sequence or two from the corrupt project would be salvageable, though, if I could clean up the XML. ...so the file's still up there in case someone on the Adobe side/anyone more familiar with .prproj file structures is insanely bored and wants another case study to dig around in...
Sorry to hear that you're having such problems.
One thing worth trying in CC:
In this way, you can sometimes access most or all of the edited content in a project that cannot be opened on its own.
