i was working on a track yesterday when it says me today, whenever i liked to open my file it could not be opend. its a *mmm file. no problem with any other mmm files to open in magixMusicMaker.
btw im using mmm15 premium. what could be the problem?

yeah, there was a crash but i cant remember the crash message. could that have damaged my file? there is no bak file avaible its just the *mmm file. is there any way to save or restore it somehow? or could i send it to someone if anyone can open it and save it?

Did anything happen when you saved the file? You maybe shut down the computer before it was finished....or there was an error?

How about the *.BAK-file?

Well....because it happened only with one song and everything else works I guess that the crash maybe messed up your *.mmm file. But there has to be a backup file.

What exactly happens when you start your Music Maker and load it after Music Maker has started?

MrL is right... there will be a back-up file. You'll have to browse to the directory and locate it first. You'll never be able to find it using Music Maker.

Hang on....it is NOT a "bak.mmm" file. It is a "bak" file!

Let's say your song was named "Nameofmysong.mmm".
So the BAK-Data is "Nameofmysong.BAK" . No "mmm" in th name.

And this BAK should be somewhere....as far as I know you can adjust where to save them...
