Settlement Recovery Procedure - Experimental Third Option
Please understand: this procedure is HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL. You should first have attempted the more mainstream and tested versions with your problem game/settlement.
You should first have made a full save and tried the following two fixes from this main thread about recovering problem settlements:
1/ City Manager 2078 Holotape Recovery
2/ Console Remote Reset
If these two fixes do not work for your savegame, you can try this one. Be aware, we cannot guarantee that your save can be recovered! You can do everything below and it still will not fix your game.
So. Use these instructions at your own risk. Good luck.
