"Sorry but the VM has crashed"- can I recover my project?

Is there a way to recover a project if Scratch crashes, even if it wasn't saved?

I was working on a big project that I had forgotten to save, and when I was importing music for it, it said "Sorry, but the VM has crashed" and then Scratch closed and my project was gone.

Is there a way for me to get it back even if it wasn't saved?

You cannot recover it, sorry  sad  I hate when that happens, just be sure to save often.

oh, ok. I was kind of exaggerating by saying I spent a lot of time on it. I've basically rebuilt it again already. Thanks.
