I’m using Audacity 3.1.3
Windows 11 Home version 21H2
I encountered an error while exporting a prerecorded radio show which combined music tracks (mp3) and voice recording in mono on a Scarlet Focusrite and a Shure PGA27 mic. I encountered an error while exporting and when I attempted to reopen the file, I get the following messages.
When attempting to open the original file, I get this.
Project is corrupt. Unable to work with the blockfiles.

When I attempt to open a duplicate backup of the file, I got a message that it was "Unable to parse project information, and the following error code.

I’m hoping the file is rescuable and that someone can help.
