It’s probably worth the question and it may be something else – sorry if it seems silly:

Did you make the model in 3.64 and now you’re trying to open it in 3.63 or a different version?

Others may have a better solution in dealing with the .pd2 file.  However, one option is to open a blank eQUEST file (go new file from wizard -> SD wizard and then click the red x on the 1st screen of the wizard to start blank).  Now File Import the project .inp file (the one with out " - baseline" ... please make a copy first!).

You should be able to recover everything you had in the detailed interface except the project location which you will need to redefine.  Your wizard data is lost (as that was in the .pd2) but all the detailed interface data is stored in the .inp file.

Hope this helps.
