try shift clicking the R and hitting "save image for end-user" i had a problem like that and that fixed it, or you could try re-installing scratch, but the first would be easier so i would try that first

I'm sorry, I don't really understand what you mean on the first one?

schusteralex2 means to open up Scratch and Shift-Click the R letter in the logo.
However, if modifying the .image file or re-installing doesn't help, then it's likely the projects was damaged in some way (for example, ending the Scratch program before the project is completely saved can cause a project to be corrupted) to the point where it's not recoverable.
If you want, you can try uploading the project through a file sharing site (like MediaFire, for example) and seeing if anyone else is able to recover it.

So I just click shift while the mouse is over the 'R' or click on the 'r' and press shift XD confusing! I'll try both and see if it works

Okay, and do I do this when scratch is just open on the new game screen or do I try to open my game and then do this? I'm sorry for asking so many questions, but thanks a lot for helping!!

I am having a similar problem. I am currently working on an animation, I am nearly done after working on it for 4 months. I try to open it and it says KEY NOT FOUND. FILE MAY BE BROKEN OR DAMAGED. How can I fix this? I have been trying different things to get it back for almost 2 weeks. Can anyone help me?
