How to retrieve lost work

Hello, i just finished my first ever work, which took my several days to complete. Unfortunately, i loaded a file from my computer and it replaced my work. Is there any way to retrieve it? Thank you in advance!

How to retrieve lost work

If you were signed in while using the online editor, you should be able to find the project in “My Stuff”. If you were using the offline editor, you'll only be able to restore to when you last saved. You can do that by just opening the file.

I was logged in and it was on the online editor. It' s not in “My Stuff”, because i didn' t delete it. The new file i opened saved on my project which was open at the time. I'll ask the Scratch Team, hoping that they can retrieve it from the cloud. Thank you all for your replies, though!

If you haven't saved it since then, and it hasn't auto-saved, then you should be able to refresh the screen and get your work back, or at least to the point where you last saved it to. I hope this was helpful!

Or, if it had to do with mainly the blocks, right-click the work area where you just loaded the file, then there should be an option that says ‘undo’.

Unfortunately, it auto-saved and the project i loaded was saved on top of the one i was working on. I did what you proposed, but it won't allow me to choose the Undo option. I have already sent a mail to the Scratch Team, hoping for a fix. Thank you very much for your time!

hello! a few weeks ago, i worked on a pretty big art project scratch, only to go on vacation and realized it hasn't saved. If there is any way to get this unsaved part of the project back, please let me know!

Help! I replaced a project with another project and it auto-saved. Is there any way I can get it back?
