Oh no, Catherine, I know seeing this error is stressful!
I see the same error when I try to open your file. Have you checked your Temp Files yet? There may still be a working version of your project there:
- Open this folder in Windows Explorer: %appdata%\Articulate\Storyline
- Scan the contents of this folder for a file that starts with the name of your project. If you find one, copy it to your desktop. If you find more than one, copy the latest version to your desktop.
- Change the file extension of the copy on your desktop from *.tmp to *.story.
- Double-click the file to open it in Storyline.
