My usually working software is Adobe Illustrator. During some weeks, I have been working on very complicated project in Illustrator. However, today .ai image suddenly hasn't opened.
1. Run a full anti-virus scan. If possible, tell it to run the scan while the computer is booting up. Afterwards, try opening the program again. If it fails, try Step 2.
2. Go to Control Panel/Programs and features. Locate the list of installed programs and scroll down to Adobe. Click on Adobe and there should be an option to Repair or Uninstall. Choose Repair, if available. Otherwise, uninstall then re-install the software. (Sometimes, Windows Update is known to "break" an installed program; sad, but true).
SOURCE: Adobe Illustrator file format is having difficulties
There may be a TMP file in the same folder, you can try renaming it to AI and see if this opens. Helped me on a couple of occasions but also has not worked in the past.If it useless, there is a good program: Illustrator Fix Toolbox https://www.fixtoolbox.com/illustratorfix.html
