Error on wbpj File Startup "Object reference no set to an instance of an object"

Dear all. Hi. Hope everyone is well. I am faced with a very grave problem suddenly. When I start my wbpj file this error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" shows and after I click OK, there in nothing in Project Schematic. No geometry, no mesh, and no CFX. It had been working fine for the past few months until now. I tried to copy the whole file to another place on the computer and on a different drive but same error shows no matter what. Please help me as that data is really important. Would be extremely grateful. God bless you. Thanks.

You can access the geometry, mesh and CFX files in the data directory of the original simulation workbench. The folder structure is a little convoluted but have a look around and you should find the files. If you then start a new workbench project you can use these files to recover at least some of the setup.
