I'm experiencing a bit of a bizarre problem with trying to open one particular LDD model file of mine. Is this the place to be asking about this or is there a general LDD troubleshooting thread somewhere?
Just in case:
Here is the problem: I was working with a particular file in LDD4 last night and had no problem opening, saving or working with the file. This morning, when I went to open the file, I got this message: "Unable to open file". There was no loading bar or anything--it went straight to that message. Other than this one file, all my other ones seem to be fine. I'm not having computer glitches or anything either.
The only other bizarre thing that I noticed was that the internet connection in my apartment had gone down last night as well--our network crashes all the time around here, but a loss of internet connection is rare. Obviously, since I am writing this now, I have fixed the internet problem, but the problem with LDD remains.
I have since tried renaming the file, but this has not worked.
I have tried running LDD 4 in safe mode, but this has not worked
I have tried re-installing LDD 4, but this has not worked.
I have tried uninstalling LDD4 and installing LDD3, but this has not worked
I have tried running LDD 3 in safe mode, but this has not worked.
I really, really, really want to get this file open, as I spent a lot of time on it and was really happy with how it was going. I have a handful of screenshots of it, but I am not confident that I will be able to re-create my steps just based on those alone. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
