Cant load or 'find' IWPRJ file  en

I have a problem with X5 10 Evolution.

I created a project website which all works OK, however when I restart the program and go to load 'Edit an Existing Project' my project is not listed anymore.

I can see the IWPRJ file in the right location and none of the other files have been moved, but X5 doesn't list it and won't let me open it via windows explorer.  I'd be very disappointed if I can't open the project I spent several hours on!

Is there anyway to refresh the existing projects list so that I can load this project again?

Many thanks for your help.

If you know the location of the iwprj file, then 1 step above you will find a map with the name of your project.

The path that leads to there should be enterend in your preferences.

You can find your preferences in the first page when you start x5.

after entering it, it should be ok.

Else you could try the backup option: http://answers.websitex5.com/post/47713

Thank you Andre - that solved it.  

For info, I have my website location in preferences set up as a mapped network drive.  I started X5 without this drive being connected and it looks like X5 reverted back to the default location when it couldn't find the mapped drive.  Might be somethjing for other users to keep an eye out for.
