I lost 6 days worth of work because of a blue screen

[Emircan Bahadır]

Hello, 

so i was working on a draw file on my computer(locally) with the drawio windows application, then i got the blue screen of death. (autosave was enabled) 

Now the file gets the error "Not a diagram file" on every platform that supports drawio file extension.

i tried opening the file with text-editor since it's supposed to be based on xml but all my screeen was filled with null. 

is there a thing i can do to retrieve my data ?

thanks in advance

What version of the app were you using (in the help menu) when this happened?

I was using 19.0.3 version of the software and I believe I got the blue screen around 27.07.2022 11:47.

Also in case you want me to send the file(which is 53kb), i'll want to send it privately.

I also checked the hidden file(2kb) with ~$(filename).bkp-like name and made it into a drawio file but it only had the first 2 hours or so of my work.

Thanks for replying super fast the first time but could you update me or can do anything about the situation. I wrote here because that file is important.

Do you see another hidden file with extension .dtmp? 

If both of these files (.dtmp and .bkp) are not helpful, then unfortunately we cannot help
