This is very upsetting and has me in a bit of a panic. All of the files that I've saved as affinity photo files are corrupted. I didn't know about the external harddrive issue and have been saving to one for years. Now, if I try to open any of the files, I get an error that says "it appears this file is corrupt." It won't even try opening it. And this happens with dozens of files. Anything with the affinity file type.

I've tried restarting the PC and opening and closing the app without any luck. Have I lost all of these files forever? This has me feeling sick to the stomach because it's hundreds of hours of work over several years. It's part of my livelihood.

Is there anything I can do?

 

NVM< I found a way to fix it. I recently reformatted my PC and installed an older version of the app. It didn't prompt me to update, so i figured I was good. Decided to do a new updated install on a whim and it worked.
