Recommended Change to All Project Files
Nvivo project files have a default setting which is best to change. We recommend changing the setting for Projects on Network Drives to On Save. Instructions from Nvivo are available here - https://help-nv.qsrinternational.com/14/win/Content/projects-teamwork/save-and-copy-projects.htm?Highlight=network%20drive#Projects
Recovering from Project File Errors
Occasionally Nvivo project files will become corrupted and will no longer open correctly. There are a few ways to recover your project file. Please follow the instructions from Nvivo - https://help-nv.qsrinternational.com/14/win/Content/projects-teamwork/recover-projects.htm. Often the quickest method is to create a new empty project and then importing the problem project into it Merge/import projects.
