Dear staff,

I love to play your game and I really want to play it more with my old save game from today.

In this OneDrive ShareFolder you can find the:
autosave files
log files - current and prev.
screenshot of the loading.

What happend before the Error!!!
The last time I played it Factorio crashed out - it just froze - I waited an hour for it to return to normal but it did not happen.
I closed it via the Task-Manager and even then it told me that it is still running.
I then restarted the Computer and when I tried to load the file the error occured.

Cheers

Thanks a lot for your help really appreciated

Unfortunatelly all the files are just zeroes, there is no map information left in them. I have no idea how this could have happen.
Can you run scandisk on drive that contains your saves to see if there are some HDD errors?

All zeroes happens when bytes are not flushed to HDD properly at OS level, one way to get this - instantly power off your computer during high HDD load. Process that remains active in task manager even after kill request is also sign of some hiccups at OS side. So this could be HDD problems or some bad driver that makes everything stuck.

OK - I guess the safe file is lost then ;:) Thanks anyway
