lewis999 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 When you right click on it, when it's un-rar'ed, does it says previous versions? Is there any of it? Really long shot, but I did that with something else on my computer and it worked, can't for the life of me think what it was though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

telV7 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I had something similar happen when I switched to a new machine. From memory I think I reloaded and patched FM, started a save with the same leagues loaded, saved, exited. Restarted FM and was able to load up my old save and all was good from there. I don't know why it worked but it did, maybe it would work in your situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padders Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Is it possibe that when you compacted the file to .rar it has damaged the file? How big was the original file? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 You did extract the file from the RAR file and didn't just try to open it while it was still compressed? Get yourself dropbox next time - you can save your game to your Drop box folder in "My Documents" and it backs it up online. When you reinstall dropbox on your computer (or any computer) the files are synched back to the computer. http://db.tt/OhYYiLK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
