Default How to retrieve a Flexsim model after it crashed
Hi

I was working on a Flexsim Model and it got crashed!!( I dont know why)
when I try to open the model again an Error message is displayed and the entire model was deleted..

The size of the .fsm file saved now shows as ZERO bytes..

Can someone please help me to retrieve the lost model... ??

I have attached the screen shot of the Error message below.

Hi Naren,

you can look after a .fsm!-file in your model folder (rename to .fsm). This is the previous saved model. The old .fsm is worthless...

greetings

Carsten

Hi Carsten

Thanks a lot for sharing that information.

Also I just found out that the local network here saves a backup of all files hourly.
And I got my model .fsm from its backup folder.

Thankyou
Naren
