if your directory `&lt;yourbucket&gt;/.pulumi/stacks` has a file called `&lt;yourstack&gt;.json.bak` , you can copy that file and name the copy `&lt;yourstack&gt;.json` and it should be fine

pulumi always creates a backup file called `&lt;thestack&gt;.json.bak`  before it tries to mess with the state file (`&lt;thestack&gt;.json`)

it’s saved me a few times :sweat_smile:

(note that I don’t work at or on Pulumi – I’ve just had the same problem a few times)

after making the copy, I strongly suggest immediately doing a `pulumi refresh` to make sure you get any state changes that were successfully applied before the `^C`
