Hi, I cannot open my book in BookMaker ("Failed to load book" error message is shown).
I see that the xml file inside the book folder (G999F09..., not books.xml) is malformed; looks like it was truncated at a certain point in the <images> node.
Is there a way to recover it?
Thanks

Hello Matteo - if that is the case, unfortunately not usually. Have you recently deleted books or imported/exported it?

No, deleted or imported/exported books.
Opening the xml file in binary, I see a lot of '0'... I had an power failure recently, I suppose this occurred while BookMaker was writing the file to the disk.

Unfortunately that would do it. Sorry about that.

Matteo,

The same thing happened to me and I've tried everything! You should talk to johnnyr or read back a few days. I'm still in the process of trying to recover the data, but no luck so far...

It SUCKS!
