thanks for reporting.
i see the problem arose when you clicked on the main menu.
can you tell me if it was a strange situation, like the software was just started or you already commanded to quit?

Hi, Hope this is correct place for posting.

HFS seems to lose the file system. It has happened at random after a restart but I always save options so I just reload but today after windows performed an automatic restart the file system file was gone.

I'll list the steps as I remember them here (HFS beta 228):
. Started HFS (beta 228) and was informed that an update was available (beta 229)
. Allowed up to go ahead which ran a script.
. After script had run file system had disappeared.
. Re-loaded from saved file.
. Today logged into machine running HFS and noticed that windows had restarted due to system update.
. Opened HFS and file system was empty
. This time when I attempted to load saved file it was not there. It should have been in same folder as HFS.
. The user accounts appear intact.

I run the server on a dedicated laptop which has no screen. I use Ultra VNC to manage it and no-one else has access.

If there are any other details you'd need then let me know.

Cheers

UPDATE: I noticed that there was a vfs.vfs.bak file. Did HFS create a backup and delete the original somehow?

[FRENCH CAN CAN]

Also this version does not archive, corrupted tar file.

For my part, I work on a solution of the problem, I know the symptoms, but not the side effects.

The management of files in the real subdirectories is not correct in the procedure addSelection ();

hi jimby, and thank you for reporting your accident.
HFS renames the current vfs to bak while trying to save the new one.
after the saving is complete, the bak is deleted unless you enabled the option "backup on save" (menu -> virtual file system).

apparently problems like yours should happen only while saving.
maybe HFS was automatically closed by the system.
reports like yours are made from time to time.
i fear HFS doesn't handle the Windows shutdown the right way.

yes, i have to work on it, yet.
i published this build because there were other news.
