to draw.io Q&A

Hello, I used to use this file all the time as, mostly, just a group of pages of text (yes, a strange usage of site, I know), but today the file stopped opening for no reasons. It just says "Error loading file. Not a diagram file" and all. I'm using web version, and file was always saving to computer itself. Maybe it's just too big or something... Thank you for any help!

Paste the raw text of the file into https://jgraph.github.io/drawio-tools/tools/convert.html, click "correct mxFile", copy the text back to another file, try to open.

Firstly - what's meant by "raw text of the file/copy text back to another file" ? The only thing I understand by it - is the thing I've done by opening that .drawio file through VScode, it then showed me HTML-like lines. Also, when I've put just that file into window of that github link, it showed me exactly that text. Is this it?
