Hi Folks,

after a windows reboot, the complete project monitor configuration is gone. No projects monitored anymore. I had to "force" the shutdown, but none of the three applications was obviously related to TortoiseSVN.
Is there a small chance that I can salvage the config from somewhere or do I have to start from scratch? (30+ projects) ...

Cheers
- Lübbe

Sorry for any ignorance...but what is the "TortoiseSVN project monitor"?

A new feature for 1.9 available in the nightly build. It's a better
integrated version of Commit Monitor.

%appdata%\TortoiseSVN\MonitoringData.ini

To avoid such problems in the future, you can set up an automatic sync
or do a manual export of the data in the settings dialog->Sync page.

Thanks, but why did the contents disappear? Did the process get killed while writing? 

How about that you create a MonitoringData.bak before each save of the config?

I have no idea.
Check the log of your virus scanner - it might have moved it to the quarantine.
