corrupted soapui project - is there a way to recover the project?

I had to shut down SoapUI when it froze due to memory usage but then my project wouldn't open (red x) - is there a way to recover the project?  Or will I have to recreate it?

    I've had some luck that when this happens I open the XML file(s) in notepad++ and run an XML validation plugin on it. Sometimes I can track down the malformed XML that causes the problem and fix it.

     

    It doesn't hurt to enable the setting for an automated save at X minute intervals, and having SoapUI NG pro make backups at save time, just in case.
