How to get a corrupted file? Searched temp and autorecovery folders and did not see anything.

A PBIX that I was just using froze and when I closed after saving, it could not be opened again. It says that the file is either encrypted or corrupted. It is a large model, so I am struggling to get the download from the Power BI service. Does anyone have any solutions here or do I have to bite the bullet and lose a bit of work.

Hi @condale777777_ ,

 

Have you tried retrieving the previous version of the file?
