Site Dissapeared From Opening Menu  en

The site I builded has suddenly dissapeared from the "existing projects" menu that appears after hitting the "start" button in X5-9.

When I tried to manually open the iwzip file, I saw that this file only contained the site in a very early state of the development proces. So: know I have a complete site on the internet, but only a very rudementary project. Is there a way to reconstruct the project file? I have downloaded all internet files to a local map.

Hi Ton!
Did you by any chance change your project folder in the ''preferences'' section?

Hi Samantha,

No, I did not change anything. There was a month or so between the last time I uses X5 to change something, and now. Also I did a search on the harddrive to find maybe other IWZIP files, but the only I find is the file that contains the site in one of it's first stages. The site on the web is OK. As you can imagine, I would be very sad if I have do do the buildingproces from scratch on :-( If there is a possibility to use the existing web files an structure to re-create a correct IWZIP file?

Hello,

Since I had a certain urgence regarding this site, I had no other opportunity than recreating the complete site :-((. I hope the IWZIP file does not dissapear anymore. This subject can be closed, but if someone knows a way to recreate a IWZIP file automatically, I will be gratefull. You never know...

Hi Ton! Please look for  backup.iwprj or project. iwprj on your hardisk, it should be in your project folder. After, check where exaclty you are saving your project in the ''preferences'' section when you open your program.

Is your antivirus active when you export? Do you use some kind of backup program?
Please keep your project in C: and save all your files there in order to avoid problems.
