I messed up this morning and deleted half of an important .css file.

Luckily I found a cached version in my Chrome folder. The file is unreadable though.

0000fc40: d2 19 68 03 5a 2b 96 39 94 02 ce 31 c3 eb 2f 18  ..h.Z+.9...1../.

Is there any way to decode it to plain text and get the CSS back? I tried converters, searched for an answer via Google but every answer that was found was not working out.

I thought that the 2nd column is hexadecimal. I tried decoding it, but the result was ÒhZ+9Î1Ãë/. Not something I can work with.

Could you help me out?

Full version of the file: https://jpst.it/UYPk

Solved it. Found the cached version of the HTML file in my chrome:cache which was created when I edited the CSS and saved it. It contained the plain text of my css in hexadecimal
