hi, I have a vsd file from ~15 yrs ago that won't open (Visio internal error #2135 Action 1283: Open file). I'd very much like to recover the content so hoping I can find a way to get it working. Anyone has any suggestions??

Is this a file that is being blocked by Visio's own internal file blocking?

File -> Options -> Trust Center -> Trust Center Settings -> File Block Settings

Untick the Open option boxes.
