File won't open!

HELP!
I've been working on this score for three months and then yesterday day it just disappears. I've tried everything it just doesn't exist anymore. I was able to recover part of it from the original that I had, pull and all nighter to try finish it saved it like every 5 mins and now today after a short break the file won't open after I turn my computer back on it won't open. Today is the last day the band will every meet to. Really considering abandoning the score and the program.

Sorry to hear that! Had you posted immediately after the original problem, we probably could have helped you recover the file from the automatic backup MuseScore makes, or from the auto-saved file that is also created. It might still be possible, but it might also be too late depending on what you've done since. See https://musescore.org/en/node/52116

The file you attached does not appear to be a valid archive file. I'm afraid your hard drive may be developing bad sectors, meaning you are likely to see start seeing problems in all other applications as well. That's unfortunately the main cause of this particular type of error.
