Disk error while reading from temporary solution file

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,

I just finished running a parametric sweep simulation of 42 hours, and experienced no problems during this.
Now, when trying to save or plot any data, I am getting the error 'disk error while reading from temporary solution file'.
I am running my hard drives in NTFS mode, and I should have sufficient hard drive space available.
I would be really disappointed if this requires me to rerun my simulation.
What can I do to somehow rescue my data, and what causes this problem?

By the way: when trying to save my data, I can see the temporary .tmp file being created and getting larger and larger until approximately 40 GB, but then the error occurs. This makes me believe that the data is obviously still around somewhere...

Also, I am running Comsol 5.2a on a windows pc.

Thanks already.
