Sorry if this topic has already been posted or if I break some rule on this forum (this is my first post, so yeah), but the other day I was working on a flash file for my website (.fla extension) and when I tried opening it again to edit it today I discovered it had changed into a .swf file and so I couldn't edit it. Instead of having the usual .fla file to open as well as the compressed .swf version, there was two .swf files (if that makes sense, I geuss im not expressing myself too great here).
I know you can download converters that could convert the .swf file back into the original .fla file, but I was wondering if there was anything else I could do to recover my original file and if not what went wrong (otherwise i'll probably end up doing it again).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
