So, I have the current version of Audacity. Sometimes when it starts to act funny I save my projects and close Audacity and then reopen it. This time I saved and closed 3 important projects. Now whenever I try to reopen them i get an error code instructing me to use File/ Open to access it, but this does not work either. I need some help in recovering these files
What was the exact error?
I save my projects and close Audacity and then reopen it.
Always with Save As and slightly different names, right?

Because if you didn’t do that, then you are continuously editing one single project. If anything happens to it, that’s the end of the world.
This is an Audacity Project.
Both the file and the folder need to be there, in one place and of the same name. You can open the AUP file in a text editor (Notepad? TextEdit?) and read it (Don’t save anything). It should have semi-English programming in it like this.
The project name should be burned into the programming (red box).
Do you have all that?
Sometimes when it starts to act funny
How funny?
