suddenly I don't open mpp files
Hello All, I'm using MS Project 2016 and I saved a file several times. Now, I cannot open the file in MS project. Could You help me how I can repair it?
- Aug 23, 2021To those following this thread,
Demetrio sent me his file and as expected I got a "problem with this file" error message when I attempted to open it. I was able to open it read only and could see resources on the Resource Sheet but a task count showed zero tasks.
If someone else has any ideas please jump in.

Demetrio,
Sure I'll take a look but if you can't open the file, there is a very high probability I won't be able to either, but, it won't cost you anything to try. Send it to me at the address below.

John- demetrio61Aug 24, 2021Brass ContributorFirst of all, I would like to thank John for the time.
It seems no solution for the issue. Therefore I must forget the file and repeat my work.
Thanks a lot
Demetrio- demetrio61Aug 24, 2021Brass ContributorI investigated 5 minutes in internet and found someone who claims they can repair the file for a fee.
My observation that I would like to share with everyone: it is very likely (to be verified) that there is a way to repair this file. There are conditions to involve some Microsoft Project developers in the discussion.
I start from the idea that if there is a way to repair a file they know it.
Perhaps this community is missing an "on-demand link" with the MS project developers.
Is my reasoning correct?
