Hello,
I've been working on a project lately. And trying to open it It gave me the error written above. Is it possible to recover the project and if, then how. Further ease of solving. I'll paste the first 20 lines of the project data code here.

See those accented characters? Audacity chokes on them. Carefully edit them to unaccented versions and you should be good to go.

Audacity doesn't like the Hungarian word Audio Sáv. It only accepts Audio Track. It's -weird, but it's true.

Audacity 1.3.9 and later should be able to handle Unicode characters correctly. However, it is strongly recommended that you stick to alpha-numeric characters (a-z A-Z 0-9), space, hyphen and underscore for file names. Even if Audacity can handle these names correctly, there is a very good chance that you will run into problems with other applications. Also, some characters are disallowed by the operating system, so the best policy is to stick with "normal" characters.
