Hello all
I was working on a file and Xara crashed and it wont open for me anymore :mad:
I tried the expandxar utility but I had no luck.
I am wondering if anyone can open it for me or maybe recover my file. Or offer any suggestions. I was drawing some logos and guitar in the file. I will post the file here is anyone might like to see if they can help.
Thanks in advance for anyone that tries.
It won't open for me, Bruce, I just get a message saying the file does not exist. Others have had some success opening
this type of file with early versions of Xara. But at a file size of 70 bytes, I shouldn't think there's much left, I'm afraid.
Saludos,
Bob.
I've lost work this way before, now I use Sledger's nifty registry hacks to make back up files. It's not perfect, you get a new file everytime you save, but it has saved me a few times.
Thanks Bob for trying. I might have to get that new program from Bill and Steve as frances has suggested. Well I might have to draw me a whole new guitar i guess..:( I guess it will be good practice.
Bruce, try opening it in an earlier version of Xtreme. I'd try it for you but my main comuters u/s
Hi egg
Thanks, I will try that with version 3 soon when I get home.
Sorry Bruce but the file is empty. As Bob says, 70KB is almost nothing.
In the case of your file, all that it contains is most of the file header:
XARA££
6 CXN Xara Xtreme Pro 4.0 4.0.4966 CD (Xara)
Nothing opens in X1, Xtreme2 or Xtreme3
PS: I notice you haven't yet updated your Version 4 (4.0.1.5601)
