Another File Cannot Be Read Error
So I was composing something for one of my classes and Musescore crashed. Now it reads the typical "Cannot read file". I did not find a backup since I did the dumb thing of always keeping the file opened and I didn't close it. Does anyone know if it would be possible to fix or where I might be able to find a specific autosave file (I tried looking for it too, but didn't see one that had a matching date).
Thank-you!

Assuming you saved it all all during that time, I always recommend checking the cloud sync/backup service your computer probably came with - OneDrive for Windows, Time Machine for macOS, etc. For OneDrive at least, you would have to have gone out of your to disable it when setting up your computer. Unless you did that, you should have the previous revision of your file stored safely on the OneDrive site.

THANK YOU!
I was in a panic since I was about to have my class, but I saw your message just in time. I don't know why I didn't think of that earlier. Much appreciated!
That file is broken in a very strange way, starts with a vaild ZIP archive, continues with a bunch of zeroes, then continues with some JSON formatted stuff,

(I've censored out the public IP adresses)
then more zeroes and then stuff that might be ZIPped content but more likely is junk. Certainly beyond repair.
