Chrashed Xcelsius 2008 does not allow me to add new components

23 Views

Hi,

I have been working on a dashboard for the past 20 hours, saving from time to time the file with different names. Suddenly Xcelsius crashed closing down. Now each time that I open Xcelsius again (after having restarted my PC several times allready....so no other software is open) I receive a message saying: "Server busy: This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Choose "Switch to" to activate the busy program and correct the problem." therefore I do choose "Switch to" but nothing happens. Instead it allows me to open files, so when I open the dashboard I am working on, the components list is working and does allow me to add new components (almoust everytime I tried, not always tho...) to the dashboard but I cannot access their "properties", so I cannot use them at all! I tried to open some old file I have, and those old files seem to work properly. My question is: Is the file I was using at the time of the crash corrupted forever? Any way I can fix it? is it safe to open other dashboard or that would "contaminate" those ones as well? I really would like to recover that file because it means a lot of work to be redone otherwise.

Thanks for your help,

Regards,

Carlo
