Hi I am running Alt.Binz 0.39.12 ona Win 7 64 PC and I was using it fine last night, but this morning when I booted up the program had reset and I lost most of my settings and my download queue. The onyl thing that was still there was some of my server settings and a couple of par files in the PAR2 folder.

Is there anyway to get my queue back? Is there a backup somewhere. This has never happened to me before.

Cheers

Dave

Was using it on Sunday, all fine, boot up the pc on Monday, run Alt.Binz and it's like a new installation, apart from a few left over bits, [server settings, some par2 files] I had to re check all settings, change theme and as mentioned lost my extensive queue.

Were settings all right? Par2 sets in par2 tab were from previous day?

Yes they were fom a recently download movie and TV show. Haven't touched settings nor updated. Is there a back up of the queue?

Check queue folder, but I'm affraid it's gone. I can not understand why all setings were ok but you had to change theme. Did you shutdown altbinz correctly?

Check both local queue folder and/or the one in the user folder (check FAQ for exact location)

In Queue folder:

6cdfa9b0cdf5382d377d3c209cf60a1b.abz 7KB

old_queue.idx 1KB

queue.idx 1KB

NO All settings were RESET, except for server settings.

As far as I know It shut down correctly.

It's not major deal, I'll have to find a lot of files again but it's a mystery.

In that case, please check both locations for altbinz config files.
