Hi all,
So I was able to find the files, and after I got the upgraded scrivener, I copied the files with my projects over, and when I attempted to open a project I recieved the following message.
“Scrivener projects.scrivx” could not be opened “Scrivener projects.scivx” is the main structure file for a project, but other required files for this project could not be found: the\Files\Data folder is missing,
Any idea how I fix this?
Copied the projects from where to where? Using what mechanism? On what platform?
The message means exactly what it says: the thing you’re trying to open is not a complete project. But we’ll need more information to figure out why not.
Apologies. I was transferring the files from my old laptops’ hard drive. The files were from my scrivener 1 app.
Do you still have access to the laptop?
Was this Scrivener 1 for Mac, or Windows?
It doesn’t switch on anymore. Issue with the motherboard I think.
andI was using the windows version of the program
If you use Windows Explorer to look at the project, you should see a .scriv folder with several subfolders. Is that what you have, or something else?
