Workflow activities disappeared

Help
1

Hello,

I got a strange issue with a flowchart - out of a sudden, all the activities in a workflow I was working on, disappeared, along with the error message from the screenshot.

If I invoke this flowchart somewhere else, it still keeps its functionality, but I cannot edit anything in it (as the activities are hidden).

Any solution to this, guys? :slight_smile:

@alin.mihalea,

Restart the UiPath Studio, clean the temp files from run command using - %temp%
Still facing same issue, restart your machine and check again.

I see this sometimes on mine. I would click retry later. Copy the file and place somewhere just in case. Then I would save, then restart. It’s never destroyed my data before so you should be good.

Happy Botting!

Thank you for the help.
Unfortunately, none of these solved the issue…

kindly delete the project.json file and then open your .xaml file
