Description

Describe the bug
Arising from support ticket https://support.microbit.org/helpdesk/tickets/98929 (private)

Project updated while signed in, cannot be opened. This has happened before.

What does the asterisk signify?

Can the project be recovered?

What can the students do to avoid this happening?

Expected behavior

Hoping that perhaps this situation could be improved by, say, retaining the current version until a new upload has completed successfully.
