Replay crashes and all my work is lost

May 09, 2018

Hi have done a 10 minute video demonstration and I previewed the output. When I hit publish replay crashed. This is not the first time. It gives me options to debug/close. Either way it closes nothing happens. Is there a possibility that I can retrieve my work.

I had the same issue (this is the 3rd crash). I managed to save it as a .replay file, but now Replay reads it as corrupt and it won't open. Is there something I should be doing differently in order to avoid these crashes? Replay seems to struggle with saving larger files and it has caused a lot of lost hours where I've had to redo screencasts.

Welcome, James! Yikes, I'm really sorry about those crashes and the corrupt .replay file. We have some great suggestions for managing Replay files here.

Can I confirm where you're saving your Replay files, and what version of Replay you're using? And if you're able to share it, we'd love to take a look at that troublesome file. I'll be standing by!
