Cannot open .SSD Parsing Error

Hello,
Last night my pc closed unexpectedly when working in SSD, and today when I am trying to open the SSD file I see a Parsing Error
" The project cannot be opened
Parsing error in file …
Row:1
Col:1
Reason:error occurred while parsing element"
What should I do? I tried also to delete the CDB, but I get the same error.

Hello

Unfortunately if the SSD (.sofistik) file is practically empty, the file cannot be restored. You can check it by opening the file with the TEDDY or the Notepad.

What you can do is to delete the *.sofistik and *.cdb files and open the *.dwg file in Sofiplus and check if it contains model data. Then open the SSD from SOFiPLUS(-X) by clicking on the SSD symbol and create a new *.sofistik file. This is the only workaround I can offer you.

If there is no corresponding *.dwg file, then hopefully you have a backup copy from which to open the previously saved version of the model.

Best regards

Hello Frederik,
The CDB file was clean and accessible from Wingraf, but unfortunately, the SSD was corrupted.
SSD was not readable by Teddy editor, notepad, and notepad++, so as I don’t use Sofiplus but cadinp as an input, I just exported the CDB to dat… :frowning:

Thanks for the reply
Best Regards
