I have been leading a homebrew campaign since Nov/Dec without too many issues. I loaded FG today, noted that an update was available, and ran the updater. After it completed I loaded up my campaign and set about adding in some content for an upcoming session. Windows 10 update restarted my computer when I was AFK for a meal. When I booted the program back up, there were some error messages, admittedly I clicked through them w/o reading I have noted similar before when the program is "force closed" for one reason or another, but nothing seemed to have been affected in the past. This time, however, all of my content was gone. PC/Quest/Note/Story tabs were all empty. I quit the program and opened up the data folder location on my hard drive, it is full of stuff. As far as I can tell by opening up the chat logs, everything I had been doing immediately prior to going AFK is there, but the program no longer accesses any of it. FG can still load up the data from other campaigns.
I Attempted restarting the program, updating the program, copying the data into a new campaign folder, and an initial google to see if I could find a solution, all without much success.
Does anyone have any tentative solutions? If there is not a way to get FG to load this campaign, can I turn that data into a module somehow? Like the in program export feature but from outside of the program? Then I could conceivably load that module with any campaign. (not yet grasping at straws, still have a few days until the next session).
Any help/suggestions are appreciated!
