why do large files get corrupt?
I am creating large SL files for my client who loves a lot of animation. After I recorded the voiceover, the file seemed to get corrupted. It went from 85,00 Kb to 3,000 KB. In story view it looks fines. But when I open a single screen it is all grayed out. does anyone know what is going on and how to prevent this? Or how to get my latest file version back? Thanks!

Hi Susanne,
I'm sorry to hear about the trouble with your file. File corruption is unpredictable, and there's no straightforward way to determine what causes it. Common causes are environmental (disk errors, power outages, improper shutdowns), viruses, failed Windows updates, and even file size (i.e., very large files have a higher risk of corrupting).
Thank you !!!! This was very helpful!
