My songs have diappeared

I've been using Hoster for years. The only time I've had a problem is when I get a new laptop with a new OS. (I'm on my third.) Vista was giving me fits, but I always find the answer I need on here!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

Got one laptop with windows vista, I do not like it. I too have hidden hoster files but can find all with the hoster program but not on a windows search. If I put kma files in ok, but if I load in a disc I can't find them. Okay I'm a vista dummy where are they?

Far as rebuilding a database wouldn't it have been easier to just merge the files?

Navigate to where you thought they were, click the "compatability files" button just above the filelist and voila, there they are. Same goes for any file Hoster is capable of changing or editing: songbook.rtf, marksong.txt, songs.mdb etc.

Hoster has no control over this, you can thank Bill Gates for setting this up and then keeping it a secret from us.

Actually Hoster 4. has some things going on to rectify this problem
