Hi,
First copy the character files as is to somewhere else. Try to use the backup one to replace the char file by renaming the extension to match the normal one.

If that doesn't work, since this occurred after a crash, there is a small chance that the character file was corrupted. Upload the files here (or somewhere else and provide a link) and I can look at the file for you.

I also want to advertise MSC's latest continuation effort, MS:Rebirth. It has FN and all the characters as late as 2018. You can check it out here, key requests for steam are currently open: https://discord.gg/4GsJRWnpyR

Unfortunately, your character was completely overwritten with no data; there is nothing that can be done to recover it. Although it shows ~4KB file size, its completely filled with zeroes. If you want to see for yourself, you can open up the character file in a memory editor program like HxD. In the character's current state, there is no need to decrypt it to see it. I can recreate a character for you that has roughly the same stats and items if you can provide me with those details.
