My projects are missing  en

My projects are now missing after adding a few groups and organising my websites within WX5.

My hosting and \appdata has more (up-to-date) changes than my (neglected) backups.

What is the best way forward? (Besides maintaining my backups better)

Search your PC for the projects - unless you have deleted them.

If/when you find them, then set the X5 to where the projects are. Or move the projects to where they shoukd be.

It is the setting at startup.

 When the setting is set to where the projects/folders are, then you should see them again in X5.

That’s odd; after importing all project back, the missing folders popped up o_0

Thanks John!

Is this a bug? Or is it meant to do that? lol

Projects can "disappear" in two ways:

- A user reorganizes his/her folders by moving them with ex. file-manager.

- A new installalation of the X5 is installed (or updated) and then the default location for the projects is set. But that is maybe not where the projects is located.

Ahh - and there is more ways it can disappear. Harddrive failure. Deletion that should not have been done.

It is always good to have the project in a iwzip file. Always make that after major changes in a project.
