[Dx4win] How to recover from foolishly lost DX4Win files

[Larry Alkoff]

I changed the directory for DX4Win and noticed the program was not working correctly
so I re-installed into the same directory ignoring the warning not to do that.

My .IEP, .CTY and one other DX4Win.??? file was reset to the original default.
I copied over those files from a fairly recent backup but not sure I'm current.
Anyone have any ideas what the third file might be?  I should have written it down
last night but thought I would remember - forgot I CRS any more!


The .IEP file is the same size and compares same as the original but a recent date - I really hate
programs that change the date of files they don't modify!!!

The .CTY file from my backup is a little larger indicating that there were exception
database changes which I know happened.

The log file and all other settings seem intact.

Is this serious?  Have I lost my import/export filters and  exception database?
Does this even matter since what's in the log should stay there
and I'll correct any new entries?

Next time I'll rename the original directory to keep the data I promise - actually I knew better.
Hubris.
