Android Studio java file gets corrupted

Question

Unfortunaetly my laptop shutdown unproperly during coding in Android Studio. When I turned on again and tried to reload the project one class / java file was corrupted and suddenly all code was gone!

What I already tried:

• Local History -> Show History = nothing to show
• File / Invalidate Caches and Restart = no luck
• Decompiled apk, but code has been obfuscated by Proguard, so it is almost impossible to read

Weird thing is that the java file has a size but the content is empty (I already deleted "nul nul nul" characters but still no luck.

Any help or advice?

Answer 1

I once had this issue and the way i solved it was to delete the folder C:\Users\cc.AndroidStudio3.2\system\caches.

i hope this helps
