Hi guys.
I know lots of people usually ask if it’s possible to recover a corrupted aup3 file, but they usually have an error message. I don’t.
Yesterday I was exporting a project to mp3, and Audacity crashed.
Now, and since yesterday. all the time I try to open the project file, it says “Error opening project” but without message.
This is the log file of now trying to open the file.
09:26:14: Audacity 3.0.0
