Short description of error
Hello,

I can't open my file which was working fine yesterday. Today it crashed when I opened it and since then all previous backup files have crashed when they were opened.

Is it possible to find and fix the problem with the crash report?221206.26.blend

The crash seems to happen in the subdivision modifier. First, can you try a recent build from https://builder.blender.org/ and see if the crash still happens?
The file is not downloading for me for some reason, so I will try again a bit to test it locally.

I tried with Blender 3.4.0 - Stable and the file also crashed when opened.

Not sure if this will work, but you can try to open the blend file from the command line using:

blender /path/to/blend/file --python-expr 'import bpy;bpy.data.scenes[0].render.use_simplify = True;bpy.data.scenes[0].render.simplify_subdivision = 0;'

Which will hopefully disable the subdivision modifier before the crash happens. Then you can try to save your file somehow as a temporary measure.

I'm not sure I did the right process but this is what the terminal tells me

poste04@ipro-de-poste04 ~ % /Users/poste04/Desktop/221206.26.blend --python-expr 'import bpy;bpy.data.scenes- [x].render.use_simplify = True;bpy.data.scenes- [x].render.simplify_subdivision = 0;'

Your missed adding the executable at the start.

/Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS/Blender /Users/poste04/Desktop/221206.26.blend --python-expr 'import bpy;bpy.data.scenes[0].render.use_simplify = True;bpy.data.scenes[0].render.simplify_subdivision = 0;'

I have investigated the file, There is broken mesh G-Strelizia_Nikolai_0. After fixing this object, file loads correctly.
Do you have backup (.blend1) file? Can you provide steps to produce such broken mesh from good one?

Since this crash happens immediately after file loading, fixing it is not easy. Will check if this is possible from command line in background. If not and you really need the file, I can send it to you somehow.

Edit: Unfortunately it is not possible to fix this file with script. you would have to compile Blender from sources...
