This morning I started up my ACDSee Ultimate and it opened to a new, empty database. When I checked, the database was in the same place as the old database, with a time stamp reflecting the time I'd run the program. Meaning that, somehow, my database had been overwritten, and all my data lost.
Why? What happened? Nothing has changed in my system since the last time I used the program, which ran and closed with no problems.
Fortunately, I do regular backups (once a week and each time I do some work), so in this case nothing was lost.
However, this is extremely worrying. Has anybody else had a similar problem?
My suggestion would be a reminder on leaving the program, similar to the reminder to embed data, but asking me to back up; it could be programmable, so that it only appears once a week/month etc.
