Crtically Corrupted File Help
Is there any way to recover this critically corrupted file? The details for the corrupted file are as follows:
MSCX error at line 4720: invalid measure length: -26/4
Thanks!

Does it open at all?
Probably not, see #323616: Score unreadable, reports negative measure length, which also mentiones a (pretty cumbersome) workaround

Not too cumbersome but I think I was just lucky in this case. Of course, I might have missed bits but no way for me to tell.
Change filename to xxx.ZIP. Extract the MSCX file (I used Ark in ubuntu). Replace instances of -26/4 with 4/4 (I used Bluefish editor). Deleted the two empty corrupted measures at the end of the piece.
