I was working on a project for school. I had autosave set up, and it appeared to be working fine. About 2 hours in, Maya crashed, but when I went to reopen the last autosave, Maya would open but show nothing. All of the autosaves do this; not a single file opens anything.

I read somewhere that if I import one of the saves into a new scene, it would show up. I did this, and it showed up, but once I saved that scene it wouldn't open again. Does anyone know what the problem is? It's very frustrating since this is a midterm assignment, and I've been in a state of panic during the entire thing because of all this.
