Lost all layout information
« on: December 16, 2019, 12:58:31 PM »
Started xlights and it said it found a newer RGBeffects file than the last used so  I said use the newer one  but then it said there was a problem with it and now I seemed to have lost all my layout information , is there a way to recover? I thought I could just load up one of my older sequence files but it starts complaining about not finding models and what to do for every model. HELP! Also I just loaded version 2019.70

There should be a backup folder that contains a backup every time you started xLights.  Just extract those files back into the Show folder.  You mainly need the xlights_rgbeffects.xml file.
