I updated from 3.1.1A to 4.0.5 right after completing a 500+ line code for a school assignment. After opening it with turing 4.0.5 and closing it, the next time I opened it. The code was gone and there was 5000 lines of er.... this: @@U"¹Ã¬Â¸9èóÃVW½pÆÿÿ¹d¸ÌÌÌÌó«Ç"¦Ã ÷ÿÿè02è"º@è¹3èŸßèè="¦Ã€u3ÀéŠ"¹EP迃Ä"¦Ã€u3ÀéshPFJøûÿÿQè Does anyone know what happened? Could I have screwed up something? Is it possible to recover the code again? I do have a stand-alone exe I produced form the final code... but I never heard of exe -> source before. Unfortunantly, I did not back it up and now I need to start it over again. |

looks like you opened the .exe file instead of source ![]() and yes - there's no decompiler for turing. |

Nope... it is the code. And it is more than twice the size than the exe. |

maybe change the .t extension to .exe and see if it runs... |

it could also be a conversion from dos type file to windows ? (i dunno, just a suggestion) and if you have the exe, you at least have proof of doing it ![]() |

Thanks for the helps guys. Sorry, I already deleted the corrupted file. But I got good news. A friend from my school has the code. It is sightly outdated, but I can rewrite the missing parts in time for submission. I had sent him the code to test it for me. ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() |

A backup could be somewhere on your disk. Turing sometimes makes backups, I think the extention is .bkw, but not sure. |
