My categories are corrupted

[systemcv]

Greetings,

My categories list is corrupted and is displaying the XML code instead of the actual categories (see attached). How do I fix this without losing my customised categories?

[VueSoft]

Hi systemcv, to fix the problem, please click the “File -> Restore Data” menu command. Hopefully you’ll see a list of previous backups. Choose the most recent backup (that was generated before the problem occurred) and click the Restore button.

I've gone back to the earliest backup in the list (23 Feb at 18:58, but the category list is still corrupted.

[VueSoft]

Hi systemcv, restoring from a backup should have also restored your categories. I have no idea why that didn't happen. Could you email your categories.xml file to support@vueminder.com? I'll see if I can manually fix the file. The path to the file can be found in the Program Options.

Many thanks for looking into this. I have emailed the file, as requested.
