We can only guess. It is possible that you were running a different program and when a file dialog appeared to save the data, you selected the VI. Of course if could also be a general file system corruption, so try to check the drive for errors. Was this a conventional HD or an SSD? Did you lose power while the computer was running? Also scan your computer for malware, for example.

My first guess is still PEBKAC, however. Are other users use the same account?

Hi Arbo,

how should we?

You need to look up for an backup on your own - we cannot do that for you!

(Your file doesn't start with the typical VI RSRC header, so it looks like garbage. Is it encrypted by some unkown other software?)
