PC crashed when recording, file is corrupted

As the title says, my PC (Windows 10) crashed while I was saving a file in Photoshop. It looks like this: Frontcover-corrupt.jpg entirely black with a thin red stripe at the top. Is there a way I can get this file? Or parts of it? Or it is lost forever? Thanks for your help.

Hate to be the harbinger of bad news, but it seems that you will not be able to recover, not without a backup of some sort, anyway. Photoshop CC (and CS6, I believe) provides a file any redundancy measures (via Edit (Photoshop on Mac) > Preferences > file management) but, like all other technologies, there is no guarantee.

    Choose a different printer, trash any job you might have which is spooled and unprinted, or trash and recreate your printer driver.  When Illustrator record for a reason, it is affected by the printer you have chosen, and this fixed my save problems at least twice, I remember over the years.

    =========================================
    Three possible causes of the failure to save:

    (1) the incompatible source files... (eventually... MPG or MP3)
    Sometimes it is useful to disable the filters... Tools / Options /.
    Compatibility tab... Uncheck all the boxes / OK.

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    (2) files source corrupted... the only solution for this would be to
    Remove the source files of the project one at a time and
    try to save each time until the problem file is discovered.

    (3) project is too big or too complex for system resources.
    Create several small projects... Save as WMV.
    Then re - import WMV files collected / drag in the timeline
    and record the final movie.

    The following of the former article has some info.

  • cc 2015 Illustrator crashes when recording

    Illustrator cc 2015 always crashes when I save a document open.

    Steve,

    It can be caused by the Plugin Extensis. You can remove the plugin in installed AI CC 2015 folder.

    Or try the list (no matter the 5) in this case).

    The following is a general list of things, try when

    (A) the question is not in a specific file,

    (B) you have a printer installed, connected and turned on if it's a physical printer (you can use Adobe PDF/Acrobat Distiller as a printer by default without the need to have a printer on, of course you will need to specify when you really need print on paper), and

    (C) It is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media (see below).

    You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    Even worse, you can:

    (6) (check the box to delete the preferences), run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) to uninstall and reinstall. It is important to use this step three way: otherwise, things may persist.

  • Firefox will not save preferences & crashes when opening files

    Two main issues here, but they can be linked together somehow.

    First Firefox always wonder if I want to contribute to send performance data every time I open the browser. I followed all the advice in the article 'FF won't save my preferences' and vain. I have now uninstalled FF and deleted all traces (Inc. in hidden folders). Now re-installed, it does exactly the same thing and now won't save my homepage either.

    Secondarily, firefox always crashes when I try and import and export bookmarks without fail. Also often crashes when you press a button download, for example gmail attachments files or post image Facebook to file. This has happened for some time and is still, even after wiping everything...

    Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • Applications and programs crash when open file Explorer

    My programs and applications are blocking as soon as I open Explorer file (I use windows 8).  For example, when I go to attach a file to an e-mail, the Web browser crashes.  Also, when I go on ' Save as ' in microsoft office, word/excel crashes too.

    So far, I have:

    -Updated and rebooted

    -virus research (clear)

    -Startup in safe mode - safe mode will not allow not even me open microsoft word, and the problem persists when you use gmail via google chrome

    -re-installed office - no change

    What could I do next?  The computer was perfect up to this problem that began a couple of weeks.

    Help, please!

    Thank you

    Hello Cara,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

    1. You did changes to the computer before this problem?
    2. You get an error message when the applications or programs crash?

    The question could arise due to corruption in specific applications or due to file system corruption directly affecting the launch programs. In order to diagnose and resolve the issue, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Run the Troubleshooter of Apps and check if that helps.

    The Apps store is an automated tool that we have developed to deal with a number of known issues that may prevent applications from running correctly. This troubleshooting automatically solves some issues including the suboptimal screen resolution, incorrect security or account etc. settings. If the problem persists, refer to the remaining steps in the help article and check.

    Solve problems with a soft

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    Try to run a scan of the file system (CFS) auditor to check corruption of system files in the system. SFC scan will search for system files corrupted on the computer and fix them.

    1. Press the Windows key + X, click prompt (Admin).
    2. In the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
      sfc/scannow

    For more information, refer to this link:

    Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files

    Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud apps crash when opening files in El Capitan

    I've upgraded to Mac OS 10.11.3 El Capitan. My old Adobe suite CS5 was already summary in the older operating system so I've upgraded to Adobe Creative Cloud 2015 (Photoshop, Illustrator, inDesign, Acrobat, etc.). Illustrator crashes when saving an image that is 'save for web' (Image open/save for web/change to save for web window / click on 'save' / crash). Photoshop crashes when you try to open the document (open Photoshop/Open - either from 'Open' in the home screen or "open" in menu bar/folder window open / click on the folder or file/crash ""). Acrobat opens but crashes after clicking on 'Open', has to be force quit. Dreamweaver does not open. InDesign crashes at unpredictable points of key strokes at first. I have not tried all the applications, but the entire suite CC is unusable. I'm many threads and problems with Apple and Adobe, but can't find the answer.

    That has not helped Bani but thanks for the suggestion. I went on the Chat with Adobe support and up to now have dates back to an apple problem, not Adobe. That the problem does not recur when we open a new user account and allows to open programs. Now I will try to fix my user account and I'll follow up with the results.

  • Crash when opening files

    Cc Illustrator crashes when I open the no higher a new file, or load a previously worked on. When I start or load a file, do not load the toolbars on my side and Illustrator freezes and crashes on me. It started when I first downloaded the version 19 and nobody else seems to have this problem. I tried updateing and default printer setting up wacom drivers. Those who were too solutions closes, that I could find.

    Illustrator needs a printer. Access to a printer via another computer can cause errors. You can try and install a PDF printer.

    It crashes when you expect that it displays the file - open dialog, or when you try to open it in fact?

    If the latter, have you tried to go to Edit - Preferences - Performance and clearing the check box turn on the drawing OpenGL [] (then restart Photoshop)?
