I am using KmyMoney (in Ubuntu) for my personal finance managment since last 4
years, after migrating from a legacy made finance software. With almost 10 to
12 years of data, it was working fine. But suddenly it is not opening and
throwing the following error.
"File /media/paarkavin/Paarkavin/Ex1/YaArO/yAaRo - Sep-16.kmy contains the old
binary format used by KMyMoney. Please use an older version of KMyMoney (0.8.x)
that still supports this format to convert it to the new XML based format."
Recently i made upgrade from 15.1 to 16.04 so along with ubuntu i also made a
upgrade on KmyMoney from 4.7.2 to 4.8.0. 
After the upgrade, still it was working well for 10 days and suddenly it is
started giving the error. I tried with previous versions also (4.6.4) but the
error is repeating. Tried wthe same with windows version also. Still the same
error. In windows no upgrade has been made.
Please help to recover the data. how to solve this error and open my kMymoney
file.
2 years earlier backup kmy file i opened find it is opening.
Thanks in advance
