Iam using netbeans 6.9 for PHP , the file i was working on corrupted after computer shutdown(power-off) , despite i save it after every change i make ( web developers know that ) so is there any way to recover the file ? when i open the file in netbeans it show just blank with spaces , when i open it in notepad++ , it show just NULL char .. (My OS : WINDOWS 7 )
A:
You should be using source control. Take this as a lesson and install SVN, GIT, mercerial or even visual source safe (wait no don't do that).
I don't know about ellipse, but my editor creates a versioned auto backup every time I save the file. It is VERY nice to have the history of all file changes.
In terms of the file you were working on, you are screwed. The amount effort it to try and recover it would be greater than redoing your changes from a backup. You do have a backup right?

That is why you have source control. Do not write another line of code until you are using it. Good luck!
