How to fix a corrupted .fla file
If you corrupted your .fla a good solution is too download notepad++ and 7-zip file manager.
- right click your corrupted .fla and it will say open in notepad++ where you will see the bytecode of the .fla
- "Save As" the .fla into a .zip in notepad++
- unzip the files into a folder where you will find abunch of files that make up your .fla
- a file called DOMDocument.xml is in there
- Go through the nodes in DOMDocument.xml that have familiar filepaths that dont exist anymore
- Make the file paths exist again by copying files to that path.
I only had 1 2mb .fla of a project ive worked on for 9 years that was saying it was corrupted, I did that and it worked.
