Hello i'm having a problem with maya and data loss.

I recently formatted my computer and backed up all my newer work, i have 3 copies of one of my projects each a save as i progressed in it, and i had another file in a completely different location. Since my format none of these files will open anymore. The filze size seems right, but when it opens it says there was data loss and now the file is completely empty. All of my old old work still works fine but for whatever reason none of my newer work will. If anyone knows any possible way to correct this it'd be great. (i tried sending one of hte files to a friend and he couldn't open it either)

Is it exactly the same version of Maya ?

Maybe post one here, if it's not very valuable, also be sure you're using the same version of maya and you have all addons (plugins, shaders) installed as they were in previous version (if used in this particular scene). If nothing works you just had bad luck, sh!t happens you know, I had someting like that too some time ago.

The error in the sciprt editor says something about the version of maya, but i know i'm using the same version.
