I said OK and it froze I had to close it and open again but it doesn’t give the option to recover the file anymore.
Now I cannot access the recovered file and my backup only picks up the last version saved when NVIVO was closed.
I found the tmp.nvp file and changed the name, but it says that the project could not be ope
