My css file is missing in Workspaces

Doing the HTML/CSS track and my main.css is missing. I have saved this work and I see it in the css folder, but when I click to edit this, it says An error occurred when trying to open the file ./css/main.css. The file could not be found.

Any chance it's still there and just needs to be recovered?

I had/have the same issue. I completed the "How To Create A Website" tutorial and when I went back to my workspace all of the files besides index, and main were missing. Hopefully there is a logical answer to this.

Same problem. My 'main.css' disappeared when I was about halfway through the course.

I emailed the support and within a couple hours my files were restored. I also noticed that at the beginning of each video, nick supplies the updated css / html files, as soon as I saw that everything was a-ok.
