I created a PowerApp a year ago. It will not open for editing. Says "Error Opening file, Something went wrong while opening your app" with no additional details. I have tried restoring to a previous app version, restore button is greyed out because "It's only possible to restore app versions that were created in the last six months." I have tried changing Power Apps authoring versions. When I try to change the version it will not save and apply. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks!
Hello @daveaylor ,
The issue seems to be related to unexpected behavior in the canvas app that we plan to fix on March 22th.
Nevertheless, please collect monitor traces while open the canvas app and open a service request with the Power App support team, https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com.
Best regards,
Ana Almeida | Power Platform Support Engineer
Ana,
Since we are post March 22nd I have tried to edit my app and get the same message. See message below. This does not happen when I open my published app for regular use. Just when I try and edit it.
Thanks!
David

This error popped up for me this morning. I waited a couple of hours and the problem went away. Perhaps a momentary glitch. I have never had it happen before this morning.
