[br]I was doing "DELETE all pictures not connected with any Movies" and had to end the task since it was "Not Responding". When I restarted my EMM all the pictures/ cover of the movies and actors are no longer displayed.

In the [b]Saved Database_cover[/b] I lost about 100 out of 1000+ (a good thing I stopped/end the task) but in its sub-folder "backup" I see that everything are there. In [b]Saved Database_photos[/b] everything looks like they're all there.

I tried to recover it by >[b]Open Database[/b] and retrieve from the [b]Backup[/b] folder. There are several days of "Saved Database.mdb" and none of them help. I tried to "Rebuild Thumbnails" and "Rebuild People Thumbnails" to no avail.

When I tried to recover from >Databases>Saved Database (there is only 1 saved) - I get the actors pics but not all the missing cover movies. So how do I get it back without entering manually since there thousands.

I just noticed that all the missing cover photos are in the Grid View but if I look at the Thumbnail View some of them are there.

thanks ahead.[size=4][/size=4]

JDommi	Posted - 07 Jun 2014 : 10:00:56 The internal backup only copies the .mdb file into the backup folder and no single subfolder. So if you delete a pic this is really lost. Please have a look here: http://www.binaryworks.it/cgi-bin/data/wiki/doku.php?id=backup_database When I need a backup or a database for testing purposes I always do a manually backup as I have described in this article.
mon1y	Posted - 07 Jun 2014 : 03:38:33 So what is the purpose of folder Backups when it's Saved Databse.mdb doesn't work when you need it?
JDommi	Posted - 05 Jun 2014 : 07:20:48 I would try this: 1. create a fresh folder restored_db 2. copy the database file into this folder and rename it as restore.mdb 3. create all subfolders with the base name restore like restore_cover, restore_photos, etc. 4. copy everything from your original database subfolders into them 5. start XMM and open the restore.mdb If this doesn't help then repeat step 2. with the latest backuped .mdb
