it will (almost) certainly be a shared Project file - these are stored
on the intermediate server as .rge files.

Would it be a new file or could it be any old shared project? Is there a way for me to search/know which file is corrupt? Help, I'm not very tech savvy I guess...

thank you!

no way of knowing which one, I'm afraid. How many project have you got?
Few enough to disable sharing on them one at a time to see which one is
causing the trouble?

Thanks Barry

I too had this annoying issue.

Fortunately I had only a few shared projects, I unshared them one by one
until I isolated the corrupt one.

Problem solved
Hope it's as straight forward for everyone else.

Cheers
