Re: [Qgis-user] Am I out of luck? Failed saving project
Oops, I did it again: The project failed saving. Context: Print editor was still open when quitting. Maybe this is the (a?) cause? I hesitate opening a bug report/Ticket before knowing exactly what causes the crash.

Re: [Qgis-user] Am I out of luck?
When I deactivate GRASS in the Plugin Manager then QGIS 2.0.1 is not able to open anymore the (old) Project File (QGiS is crashing). When I activate GRASS again QGIS opens the Project without errors.

Does the corruption happen every time you save with a box open in edit? If so could you give an example of a property box that causes it?

I was able to recover an older version of the file with my SugarSync account. I've had the service for years and have never had to use it.

You are not out of luck it's an XML format text file. Though if the file is empty you'll need to go look for a backup. Compare against a new project file to see how it should look.
