Corrupt file pbix unable to open

Hi

I got 200MB file what has become corrupted as machine re-started itself before I finished saving it. I couldnt get it to open. Have tried renaming the file to zip and unzip it even that zip file wont work as it said it requires password for some strange reason.

 

please help 😞

 

Thank you so much

Hi @Anonymous

 

Did you try opening a blank PB desktop file ? Sometimes there is a message to get back unsaved file closed with mistakes
