Bonjour, j'ai exactement le même problème. Je ne triche pas, c'est juste une coupure de courant. Si vous pouvez m'aider, je vous en serais très reconnaissant.

Hello, I'm having exactly the same problem. I'm not cheating, it's just a power cut. If it's possible to help me, I'd be very grateful.

use this:
python "C:\Users\brian\Desktop\plza-recovery\main.py" "C:\Users\brian\Desktop\Ehpic - 2025-10-17_11-50-41\main"

Hi, I have the same problem. My power went out, and when I tried to open it again it didn't work anymore. Now I've been trying to make the code work but I just can't. Could you help me with the save?

What's the problem with your save? The save got corrupted & isn't loading? or your progress was lost but save is still working from last checkpoint?

Do you have a file named "backup" in the same folder as the main file?

Try the recovery tool

Not working for this save, too many things seems to be corrupted, if you know the repair script person can you ask them to look into this?

Done, it's working now :

check this file, tks sir

quick tutorial on how to use the recovery tool at least how i did it and go it to work on my windows pc:
-find your folder backup of said corrupted file in jksv. (if you dont have one create a new backup)
-transfer corrupted file to desktop
-unzip corrupted file

-locate the recovery folder and open it, inside you should have a file named 'main.py'
-open cmd (i use win+r, then type in cmd) hit enter to open
-once it boots up type: python (you may need to download an app plugin from the microsoft store latest is 3.13 iirc)
-on the same line find the file 'main.py' and drag/dop into cmd, hit the spacebar once
-find your corrupted file and locate 'main' and drag/drop into cmd
-now click enter
-it'll take a moment to find the errors and complete with corrections
-once finished open the corrupted folder and you should now have a new file named 'main_modified'
-delete or save your old 'main' on to desktop or whatewver folder you choose just make sure its out of the corrupted folder its currently in
-highlight and rename main_modified to main and hit enter
-now select all the files in that folder "nx, backup, and main"
-right click and compress, choose .zip
-rename the new zip folder as the corrupted folders name (copy/paste if you like)
-take your new zip folder and replace it with your new one in the nintendo.
-if your old corrupted folder is still in the nintendo remove it out of there and drop in your new zip folder
-turn the switch on and open jksv, locate your ZA game.
-open the side options and find your backup, click the Y button to restore.

once complete close out jksv and open your ZA game. itll take just a moment for the title to come back on and you should have everything (but the corrupted items in your bag) in working fashion
-enjoy

Hey bro, my power went out ans when I tried to get back in it's saying there and error with save file, I've tried different emulators with save file and it's the same error. I tried the recovery website that was in a another chat and it said the save wasn't a PLZA save file. Not sure if you've encountered this and what should I do next?

can you check the size of your save file? If it's below 3021 KB then it's beyond repair.

It's exactly that 3021kb, let me cross check

 

[Ash69]

It's exactly that 3021kb, let me cross check

It's just 3.7 KB, i'm afraid it's beyond repair. I doubt anyone would be able to recover it.

Alternatively, if you could just clear the cutscene for me:
