Hi,

I've been using session buddy for a long time.
I have hundreds of sessions & thousands of links saved

Today, I just clicked "backup" then it crashed & wiped everything!
Except for 3 previous sessions & last saved session!

This never happened before!

I looked for the session buddy's SQLite database & it has only the same as above!

This is crazy! Please help!

Sorry man. This happened to me last year. There's a bug in the program. I used a recovery program and I hope it's in a hard drive it moved everything into. But generally the people behind this do not care and have no idea, the guy who created this was like "I unno". Useless person. I recommend using another program in future. See if you can recover a previous version or your entire hard drive. I used Stellar. If it doesn't work just get a refund.

Happened to me too. I used a low level tool to recover the file, but apparently it's corrupted. I've sent the file to Support to see if they can recover it since it had important sessions related to my PhD but I had no answer. Unfortunately seems everything has been lost, at least for me.

In your case, I would use a tool to search for deleted files. You should find a file with no extension, just a number, inside Session Buddy user folder. Try to recover it, and it should be a database file. If you find it, if it's not corrupted like in my case you should be able to recover your sessions.

Which software did you use Sebastián? I tried several and they cannot find anything.
