I've been using DP (7,24) for a long time.
Recently I cannot open any of all my files I created.
I can see the audio map, analysis map ... that is all there.
But opening a file is not possible.
The suggestion is to open a file with text editor??
I changed that preference to open with DP7,24 but that changes nothing.
Anybody any idea about what is happening? I'm desperate
May I suggest you give us a complete description of your Computer, OS version, and connected devices, plus advise on which drive you have your projects stored?
You can update your signature (I doubt you are still running a G5!)
It will give any willing troubleshooters a chance.

If you’ve moved your files, we need to know that, too.

I've tried to attach an image of how my screen looks, but that doesn't seem to work.
The problem I have is that is that I cannot select the file I want to open, it' appears in grey on my screen and not black like all other files. All my project files are like that. It seems like all the separate parts of my files still exist, but the final result isn't accessible.
Also, the project file doesn't have an extension. Can somebody tell me what extension the project file should have?
