Please Help

Okay so I spent 4 hours making a project/game for a school presentation, and when I copied it to a USB I thought everything would be fine. But then I noticed that the original copy I had on my computer and the copy on the USB were not .sb (scratch projects) file types,  but were "files". Thats all it said was that it was a file. When I tried to open it with Scratch it asked for an image file? PLEASE HELP I need to turn this project in quick and I can't remember how to do everything I did before!!

Re: Please Help

Either Scratch wasn't installed correctly or you need to change the filetype to .sb.

Scratch was installed correctly and how do change the filetype successfully to .sb? I tried just adding .sb after it but it still tries to open with an image file?

Re: Please Help

Just open Scratch normally, go to File > Open, and select your project from there.

Did you remember to put the image file on the thumb drive or was it already on the computer you tried to use?
If not then that was your problem, scratch cannot run without the image file that comes with the download. It tells it exactly what to do

Did you somehow get the wrong flashdrive? I've done that before, I had math homework saved on a flashdrive (don't ask why) and I accidentally got it mixed up with a different flashdrive. Oops.

RANDOM THOUGHT: If the tomato is a fruit, doesn't that make ketchup a smoothie?
