Resuming a simulation from a previous run at a time the solver could not converge

I was running a simulation a 2D axisymmetric plasma DC discharge. Unfortunately, after 2 days of ruuning, at one of the time intervals, the simulation stopped with the following error:
"Nonlinear solver did not converge. Maximum number of Newton iterations reached. Time: 2.4364424006683502e-06 s. Last time step is not converged."
Is there any way I can resume my simulation from the aforementioned time interval (2.43E-6s) onwards?
N.B. I tried creating a new study starting from 2.43E-6 s by taking initial conditions from the previous study (that crashed out) at that particular time but it did not seem to give dependable results.
