?Sorry to hear about the problem.? Does ctrl-Z work to undo things? (been a while since I actively used kicad.
With all due respect, shame on Kicad for the lame behavior and poor excuse.? IMHO, backup provided by the tool should be solid - there are no excuses.? No guarantee that doing your own backup would prevent the problem...If they are blaming the behavior on 'things going on in the background' then you could save an already corrupted file.? This shows a lack of discipline on the backup mechanism.

Fortunately,
KiCad saves backups. Look in your PCB project directory. You
should have a folder of zips called
"<Project_name>-backups".
