Corrupted file
Hi everyone,
Unfortunately, while I was working on an important orchestral score, there was a sudden power outage... Thanks to my UPS I managed to quickly save the file and close MuseScore, but when I turned the computer back on and tried to open the file, it said it was corrupted and couldn't be opened.
I also tried recovering the backup file, but sadly that one seems to be corrupted too...
Is there any way I can recover it?
It was a very long orchestral project and I was almost at the end. I'm really desperate right now — this really couldn’t have happened at a worse time.

Unfortunately, your score is irrecoverable as it stands (it consists entirely of zeros)
Try to find the file in a previous state in .msbackup
Either of the following How Tos might help you in finding backup files:
How to recover a backup copy of a score
How to recover a backup copy of a score (1.x)
Good luck!
Going forward, the following thread post describes @yonah_ag's folder structure (and now, mine, too) for file versioning. This might help if the problem arises in the future. Sadly, if you're not already doing it, it cannot help NOW.
