ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Vincent PINON 2021-03-25 13:10:11 UTC
I guess you are using AppImage, right?
Can you launch it from terminal and see if there are messages in the console?
Was the project created with an older version ?
Comment 2 George 2021-03-27 18:57:35 UTC
Yes I'm using the appimage version

tried launching it from the terminal, but I'm not that good at it and 
tried to launch it, but gave up.

The project was created in this new version

I have found another way the file opened: rightclick on project file and 
use open with - kdenlive wasn't in the file list so had to make custom 
link- after that I could double click any kdenlive project file and it 
opened kdenlive and the file.

Previously kdenlive opened by doubleclicking file, but didn't recognise 
the .kdenlive file and didn't open it.

not sure why this step had to be done.

Sorry, it is not very clear to me: is your problem solved now?
Comment 4 George 2021-03-27 20:47:13 UTC
Not quite,

I've just been testing other files I have and some open, some do not. 
They all open from within kdenlive, but not all from their project files.
