I had version 2.0.2 and recorded two sessions three days ago. Today they will not open. Per advice I downloaded 2.0.4 and still no luck. A box pops up saying it cannot open the file and then lists the file location.
PLEASE help. I have Windows 7 but have not had this problem until today.

You can tell us everything it told you.

If the message says that it cannot find the _data folder for the project, you’ll need to put the _data folder back in the same folder that the AUP file is in.
Please see http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/audacity_projects.html#AUP .

the box contains the route to the file, starting with the drive, user, etc.
the data file is in the same location as the .aup file I cannot open
There is no such thing as a data file, it’s a _data folder. If you read the link I posted you can see the required structure.
Please attach the AUP file for the project you want to open. Please see here for how to attach files: https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/how-to-attach-files-to-forum-posts/24026/1 . If the message says that there is a token error at a line number, please give the line number.
