# v0 duplicate chat for advanced editor failing with white screen and ZIP upload errors

## Problem
I have a fairly old chat that has gone through plenty of `v0` updates. This time I can no longer see my code. It’s telling me to duplicate the chat again in a more “powerful editor.”

## Current Behavior
- After duplicating, I get a whole bunch of errors and a white screen.
- I ask it to “repair itself”; it identifies the issues and claims to fix them, but it doesn’t.
- It starts trying to collect errors, consuming credits for something that is broken.

## What I've Tried
- I tried downloading a `ZIP` and uploading it in a new chat, but I keep getting this error:

> **Error: Unable to process request. Please edit your message and try again.**

Any idea?

Did you know there's another category dedicated to #v0 topics? A human should be here soon to help, but the answer may already be available even faster in one of these other posts.

Our docs are a great place to start.

Do you have a chat link I can share with the v0 team? I’d also like to see if I can duplicate it myself!
