ESU20 [CB] #4 | Failed to get dates from Intraday data file. Header check failed when opening the file C:\SierraChart4Stage5\Data\ESU20.scid for reading. Error: Unknown Intraday file type. Header error. File: C:\SierraChart4Stage5\Data\ESU20.scid | 2020-06-17 19:08:08.768 *
The intraday data file has been corrupted.

You need to delete the ESU20 Intraday data file following the instructions here:
Chart Data and Chart Data Files: Deleting a Chart Data File

You can then reopen the chart or Chartbook for it. The file will then be re-created.
