Loaded save files, 0 bricks, everything gone.

[Hobbythom]

So, today I loaded a MOC I was working on and the file I opened is completely empty. There is nothing there. When I try to open it whilst working on a different MOC I get a parsing error. Any tips?

In order to help we need more information like:

• What Program are you using?
  
• What kind of file are you trying to open?

I am using ldd and loading a save file.

Sounds like LDD had an error while saving, which left you with a corrupted file. I'm not sure there's anything you can do.

Please share the file so that we can take a look at it.

Thanks for looking

The file is corrupted, expecially the lxfml (it is possible to recover the png thumbnail file, but not the xml one).

You could try to fix it using a commercial zip repair software (I tried some free solutions without sucess, but maybe a commercial software will help you).

Thanks for looking. I am not really familiar with the terms you mentioned I'm afraid. If I had said zip repair software, what does one do to repair the corrupted file. A link to a guide would be equally helpful.

Errata corrige: I was able to manually repair the file.

The result should be almost complete, maybe some connection has been lost.

You can find your lxf on the bottom of my gallery.

Calabar, you have my endless gratitude! I owe you about 9 hours of LDD'ing! Many, many thanks.

You're welcome

That was well done Calabar. I tried to open the file in winzip, but it gave me parsing error.
