Yea, anytime the studio has a problem loading a project, I find that doing the following seems to help:

I haven’t experienced this issue in any release since 5.5. In the file explorer, navigate to your project folder and delete the following items (no risk here, these will get re-built once you reopen the project in the Studio): Then, try downloading the latest release …

In simple terms, what it does is remove all of the binaries from the project, then lets the studio recompile all of your project code from scratch the next time you open it.

If it turns out that this helps OP, I’ll go ahead and post a tips and tricks topic with more detail.
