I have a database where I keep all my games along with annotations and
analysis. This database is particularly important to me as it is the only
place where I have stored my calculations and notes wrt the ongoing
correspondence games I'm playing.

Last night, due to a power outage, my computer was shut off while I was using
Scid and working on my games.

Now that the power is restored, I noticed that unfortunately I cannot open the database any more. As soon as I try to do so, Scid exits with the error
message below:

   Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Is there any way to repair a "damaged" database or at least recover the data?

The advice seems to be don't use the disk or you will overwrite stuff.
Make a copy of the disk and use something like PhotoRec.
Can't be much more help as never successfully done it.
