so I reopen my project and my animation has gone?

like for real? where do I find it? I saved my project and everything before I left. I swear to god unity is some counterintuitive jumping through hoops bull 75% of the time

or if I have to do it again because of the travesty that is unity, what do I need to do to save it? jesus what a useless program

this is literally unusable then, I’ve read others are having this issue too. is there a way around it? extremely flawed and actually makes unity a completely functionally broken program
