Sigil can't open my Epub file

Hello,

I just finished creating a Fixed Layout Epub in Adobe InDesign 2020. When reviewing it in SumatraPDF, there are a number of issues with it, so I thought I'd try to open it in Sigil and see if I can find out the problems through there.

The thing is, Sigil isn't able to open my file. I get the following message:

Quote:
Error info: Cannot load file D:/My_Documents/ComicScripts/1 - WotN Arrival/WotN1_Complete.epub: ..\..\..\main_code\src\Sigil\Misc\Utility.cpp(240) : Throw in function class QString __cdecl Utility::ReadUnicodeTextFile(const class QString &)
Dynamic exception type: class boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<struct CannotOpenFile>
std::exception::what: Unknown exception

Sigil version: 0.4.0
Runtime Qt: 4.7.2
Compiled Qt: 4.7.2
Platform: Windows SysInfo ID 240
Is there any reason Sigil can't open this file? It has no problems opening the other Epubs I have. However, those older Epubs were converted using InDesign CS6, but you'd think the newer Indesign 2020 would have less problems.

Hope someone can help me figure this out; I have enough problems with this file without Sigil doing this.

Thanks in advance.
