Are there any tips for repairing a damaged file?
Question
My Family File may be damaged or corrupted. Can you give me any steps to repair the file?
Answer
Cause:A damaged family file or data corruption can often result in the occurrence of a number of program errors. Most often the "bad" data is brought into a family file through merging unchecked files, improper shut-downs of Family Tree Maker or Windows, a virus or through other existing damaged files.
The easiest way to recover from file damage is always to restore a backup of your data from the time prior to when the damage occurred. We recommend that our members protect themselves against data loss by maintaining a good backup system. For tips on backing up your data, click here.
If you do not have any backups of your data, you can try to remove the damage from your current file. Not all types of file damage can be recovered. However, we have had some success in recovering many damaged files using the steps below.
