SafSaf - Just some tips on what I do for what it is worth....

- google "FreefileSync". I use this fantastic software to "hot" backup all my files to keep in sync and avoid losing any work in SC. Just clone the entire SC folder and if something gets messed up, switch the folder from last backup and move on instead of trying to figure out what the hell did I do or blame it on the platform. Assume or relying on SC support to solve every problem I run into is just not feasible!
- use "duplicate chart" feature every time I attempt to make any changes. Never ever start new work from scratch. There is so many darn configuration parameters in SC, it is easy to fudge things up if you are not careful.
- use the setting to doing a "save all" automatically every x minutes to avoid losing any work and also on platform close.... without fail.
- "settle" on a standard chart settings configuration window so you don't have to spend time fudging with it every time. Use symbol settings to keep your chart configuration in sync when you switch or use different instruments to automatically use your chosen settings.
- Also, please understand that somethings within SC are dependent on behaviors driven by windows operating system. Unless you have a technical background to troubleshoot, it is best to protect your work on a USB drive for quick restoration and move on forward with your life :-

Hope this helps.

it's worrying that you don't know what might have occurred.
