very big problem :( - HoyChampoy - 07-17-2012

I've run into a very big problem, i had an script hps file full of scripting. When i opened it up on notepad ++ again, all my scripting was replaced by the word "nul". I don't know what happened, and a whole months worth was wasted, is there a way to get it back Sad

Wait, are you opening the .HPS file or the .CACHE file?

I'm reading about this right now, it seems that this is a pretty common bug in notepad++. I'm still looking to see if there's a way to fix it.

If the file size still reflects what you'd expect for all you have written, then chances are the contents of the file are still there. If you've overwritten the data with this "nul" issue, then you'd be lucky if Windows saved a previous version of the file (see file properties) or if a copy of the previous version was duplicated in the VirtualStore folder.
