Steps

  1. Look in the sidebar for a group headed "Could not be read", with a number beside it.
  2. Read the message. It says: "This chat could not be opened (NV-UI-008). NeuralVault found the file that keeps this chat, but could not read it. It may have been cut short or saved in a different format. Nothing was changed or deleted."
  3. Carry on. Open another chat, or start a new one.
  4. If you need that chat back, press "Copy error details" and send the text to us. The file is still in your vault.
  5. Do not delete anything in the vault yourself to try to fix it.

How to tell it worked

Your other chats open as normal, and the damaged one is still listed under "Could not be read" until it is repaired or removed.

If it does not work

You edited a chat file by hand.
Saved in a different format, or cut short, can make it unreadable. Undo your edit if you can, or send us the details.
All your chats are missing, not one.
See the guide on finding your vault. The app may be pointing at a different folder.
A note, not a chat, will not open.
