Good Afternoon,

I created a design template for a steel diaphragm. I completed the template yesterday and saved the file and restarted my computer. Upon trying to open the file this morning, the file will not open. I do not get any error message when trying to open the file, rather the MathCAD splash screen pops up an then the program shuts down. I cannot locate any backups or other versions of the file stored locally. Is anyone able to help recover this file for me? I am not sure how best to do this. The file is attached. Thank you in advance for any help with this!

I may have fixed the file, please see attachment.

I've replaced one region with a text. You can search for:

Offending region

to find where that happened. That is, if the file opens for you...

Success!

Unfortunately I can only confirm that Mathcad crashes when trying to load the file. I don't know what the reason could be.
Looking in the file I noticed references to files on drive P: and also files on a onenote share. Are these accessible when you try to open the file?
