Yup, I think that's exactly what happened. I did have a FM crash, and did choose OK for the recover file.
In the future, should I say NO to opening the recover file, and delete it? Thank you.

It sounds like this file *is* an FM file. Try forcing a save to XML (with a .ditamap extension) overwriting itself and you should be OK. this happens when FM crashes and you say OK to the prompt to open the recover file. ...scott Sent from my phone.

My other ditamaps don't do this. Something I've noticed is that this particular ditamap has a file size of about 1.2 mb, where the others are all around 25k. Any idea what could be happening here?
