Save? Have you even tried that? You cannot save during this mission.
Rather than trying to explain, I made a quick 2 min video about how I solved it:

Excuse the rambling.
Edit: I partly agree with admcmei86 on the theory on why the bug happens. I think it has something to do with when you sabotage the modules, but it seems to be a location trigger as well.
Edit 2: People say that you can get into the room through a window, but the window to the bottom room have crates covering the window. At least for me.

Replying to your EDIT 2: The lower room has two windows. If you're facing the non-functional door to the top room, then that lower-room window with the crates is below you and to your left. You want to go in the one below you and to your right, directly opposite the window you tried to go in. If you climb about halfway up the stairs to the upper room and stop on the landing before the stairs turn left, you'll see the window right in front of you.
I can't tell now if this part is bugged or not, because the doors never did open up for me but the quest completed just fine as soon as I went in the window and accessed the Kett terminal for the first contact logs. Do we know for sure that the doors are even supposed to open? Seems odd that you'd be able to shoot out the windows and work around the doors if the point was to unlock the door. Maybe disabling the security matrix just unlocks the terminal and we were always supposed to go through the window?

This quest was not bugged for me, actually. I disabled all three security matrices, went to the top storage room, then to the console that told me the data I needed was in the lower room (out past the security devices I disabled), and then finally back to the lower room. Neither room was locked for me, and the quest was checked off properly for me. I think if you try to do this after you finish clearing the Kett base, it bugs out. You need to prioritize this one.

Thanks for your excellent description of how to find the window for the lower room. I found windows for both rooms now and was able to complete the quest and given the next step to return to the historian with the info!

I did not realize there was a window on either side of the lower room, but yes, you can access all the rooms by smashing through the windows if nothing else is fixing the bug.

This quoted comment in the thread solved the issue for me. Thanks, TinyPhreak! 🥳

- 5 years ago@cosmoblivion there's another window on that level that you can go through. I saw the window you saw at first and started to get miffed, looked around a little more and found a second one
