Battery died mid-ride and device did not display ride to save once battery charged. FIT file now appears in "activities" folder when plugged into computer, but I get error message from attempts to manually upload. How to fix?

Battery on my Edge 840 died during a ride. Unfortunately, upon charging the Edge, it did not display the ride to save. It also does not display the ride in my ride "history" on the touch screen of the device. But, when I plug Edge into computer and navigate to the "activities" folder, the FIT file for the ride is there. So, I tried to manually upload to both Strava and Garmin connect but I'm getting error messages when I try to upload and it does not work. I'm guessing the file is corrupt since I never actually saved it? Is there any way to fix this?

Thank you!

If you've already tried this How Do I Manually Upload an Activity I Recorded to Garmin Connect?

Attach the fit file to this thread. We can take a look to see if it is repairable.

Zip the file, then in a reply post Insert >> Image/video/file >> click Upload >> browse for file >> OK.
Or upload the fit file to a reputable file sharing service, such as OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, make the file public, then paste a link to the file in your post.
Or if you'd rather your activity remained private, you can send me a private message. I've set my account to allow PMs from everyone.
