Hello, Since updating to the latest 6.1 and latest XCode version, we can’t open the project.pbxproj anymore. It says there is a parsing error : The project ‘project’ is damaged and cannot be opened due to a parse error. I recloned the project, regenerated via the Projucer the pbxproj but same error. Any idea? ---

Oki, I found the issue. Having the special character ’ in the name of a file causes this issue. It was not the case before. I think this should be fixed 😉 ---

I’ve just experienced this using Projucer 7.0.5 and Xcode 14.2 - seems to be the result of including an xml file as a binary resource with a single word filename containing the special character '.
