Cant load save

Post by Drakster290 »

Version: 2.0.23

Hi, I play Factorio everyday and last played it yesterday and everything was fine. And today when trying to load my save I get an error with this:
Opening zip C:/Users/User/AppData/Roaming/Factorio/saves/1.zip failed: I/O error


I already tried to restore files using Winrar but nothing worked, I think it's because I closed the game too quickly after saving the map.

I really hope for your help. :mrgreen:

Welcome to the forum.

The savefile seems to have only 53% of data, the rest is zeroes.
When something similar happens to me, it's usually because Windows crashed/power outage/corrupted disk.

I don't think there is anything to be done with this savefile.

Do you have some older (auto)saves available?

This save file is unrecoverable as the zip file is corrupted by being partially filled with zero bytes.
This hosting does not allow for anonymous download so i am unable to take a look at it.
