How can you recover lost session data?
Hello there.
I'm using ProTools LE 7.3 and had an access command violation for the first time ever. When I was closing a session and the Save/Don't Save/Cancel box came up any selection caused the access command violation and I could not close the program without having to ctrl.alt.delete out. Now when I opened up the same file the data is gone. The audio/wav files are still in their respective folder, but I cannot recover them as tracks as they were. Could anyone provide some guidance on how to recover the files? thanks Bob |

If you have AutoSave turned on(highly recommended) you may get all or nearly all back by going into the backup folder and grabbing the last backup.

Autosave - yes!
If you didn't have it & you still need the files, you can import them into your session. The negative there is that they are just the audio files & you may need to reconstruct or move around the files to get back to where you were. |

I am not sure if this is what was being suggested but what you could do is create a new session and use the import session data command to import the tracks from the session that will not open.
That way if you had any plug-ins on the tracks it will bring those in as well and preserve fader settings etc. |

Doesn't "AutoSave" save the project "as is", with everything in place, including plug-ins and "files in place"?

So, all I can offer you is that you get this 7.3.1cs7 update installed asap to prevent this problem from occuring again. And, in the future please check our website for software updates which include important bug fixes. |
