Flow designer

[dhruvajmera]

(XANADU Patch 😎 In flow designer, after modifying an existing working flow, it is saving but not activating, it gives the error:
INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified
There is no custom actions or scripts used, only OOB actions like asking for approval, updating record and sub-flow etc.
And after removing the change to make it as before, it still giving the same error and not activating.
I checked almost everything, it is for this flow only, activating on test instance without any error, tried clearing cache.

Without showing what you did, it is impossible for us to assist on this. Go back to the old version of the flow and make the changes again, activating the flow after each update, so you know where it is going wrong.
