whole working directory got corrupted.

I tried to create a drawing pdf and it showed an error that the pdf cannot be created and then the drawing and its part got corrupt.

Creo gives a message cannot retrieve the file.

the computer I am using is in network.

Has anybody faced this issue before?

Operating system windows 7 professional sp1

Creo Parametric 2.0 M100

Can you open an older iteration?  If you haven't purged your directory, you should have several iterations available.  On rare occasions I have seen this, usually when Creo crashes during a save operation.  I've always been able to open a previous iteration, however.

unfortunately i did purge the directory

Ugh, that's a shame.  If you have maintenance, I'd send it to PTC.  They may be able to recover it.

in my 8 years on proe this was my first time of a corrupt file.

If you have maintenance, PTC can sometimes "fix" corrupted files.

You may also try copying the entire contents of the folder to a local directory (preferably on a different computer) and try again just to rule out network issues and issue on your local computer.

Hi Stephen,

no we do not have maintenance as of now, in any case we could not have submitted the file because of NDA with the client.

yes i did check it locally on another system and it could not be opened.

are you using a pdm like windchill or intralink?

If so, do you know where your cache files are?

[rohit_rajan]

No we are not using windchill or intralink
