Unable to re-open file, error message says : "hexadecimal value 0x00 is an invalid character. Row 1, position 1".

Hi all,
Started a new translation file this morning. A couple of hours under way, the screen froze, I shut down and reactivated the computer, and upon reopening the file received the error messages as shown below. No problems opening and working on other  XLIFF files for other jobs.
Can someone please help?  Thanks in advance!
  
When opening the file with extension sdlxliff: 
(the last line (in Dutch) of the error message says: "hexadecimal value 0x00 is an invalid character. Row 1, position 1." 
Error message in Trados Studio stating 'Failed to open CDS WF Portfolio Survey PROG V7 Dec 19 2025 processed docx.sdlxliff'. Additional error information mentions 'hexadecimal value 0x00 is an invalid character. Row 1, position 1.'
And when opening the sdlproj project file: 
Trados Studio window displaying a dialog box with arguments and tasks, including 'openPackage', 'openProject', 'openServerProject', and 'noAutoUpdate', along with their descriptions and usage.
