[Dx4win] Country.dat missing error

[Len Kay K1NU]

Hi all,

Running v9 latest (9.0.9.1259).  The last couple times I’ve done “check for updates” and installed them (most recently today), I get the error message “Country.dat file missing”.   The application throws an exception and restarts.  There is, in fact, no country.dat file in my /save folder (or anywhere in the /DX4WIN tree).   But all my country totals, etc. are correct.    The program seems to be running fine without it?!?

I can grab a backup copy from my /backup folder, but it seems to make no difference to the application.  If I then try “check for updates” again (with the ‘old’ country.dat file in place),  the updater says “no updates”. 

What have I forgotten / am I missing?   Is the error a red herring and country.dat info lives somewhere else?

Tnx & 73
