Bug ID: 372445
Summary: File corrupted: "not a valid krita file"
Product: krita
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: krita-bugs-***@kde.org
Reporter: ***@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---

I saved the file as well as turned it off, but later on my computer restarted,
and now the file is corrupted. I've attached the file here if anyone could
possibly restore it-- i've already spent hours upon hours on it, and had just
finished the flat colour, hoping to start the shading when I found the file
corrupted. I would really, really appreciate if someone could try to fix this
file!!!

I'm sorry, but that file cannot be recovered. A kra file is a zip file, but no
zip repair tool that I tried could recover anything in this file.

Hi Melissa,

I've checked your file and all it contains are zeros. Without access to your
system, I cannot guess how this came about, but I'm wondering whether your
drive isn't dying.
