Topic: WebPlus X5 corrupt file

Hi Alfred and everyone,
I emailed Alfred the other day regarding my website which I built using WebPlus X5, I have regularly updated the site sometimes everyday to do with our dog club for years when suddenly on the 25th March I had just edited the file pre publishing it when I could have fallen asleep i dont know but the wife said do it in the morning, morning came went to access the WebPlus programme file for the club and it suddenly said 'the data is invalid' I've checked everything over and over again and it still says the same thing, I got in touch with a company who have done a remote access to my computer and they say the file is corrupt, how I don't know! They say get in touch with Serif and ask them if they can repair a file, is that possible as they don't do the WebPlus range anymore, it is a very important site does it mean that I have to make a new site and lose all the current info on the site? Help would be appreciated by some technical wizard, can you help?
With regards, Bryn

Re: WebPlus X5 corrupt file

I stand to be corrected, but isn't it possible to download your existing website into Webplus?
Alternatively, download your website and re-built it from that.
Again, I stand to be corrected, but the *.wpp file is a .zip. If you were to change the extension from wpp to zip you might be able to open it and extract things from that.
If you are able to upload the wpp file to here some of us might be able to help?

I just saw the date, I hope you have it sorted by now.
