lost KMA files

[Karen K]

Hey Maryskaraoke....

I went through grief with this yesterday - I lost over 10,000 .kma files... I was able to recover them through a program called "Paretologic" - I had searched my hard drive (search - files and folders - .kma) and only had 3,000 plus showing. I wish someone would assure me that this won't happen again. As soon as recovery was complete, I backed up to a 500GB "book." However, on working with it this morning, on a search for a song, it will appear in the window but if you click on it, it is NOT there...so I'm in the process of 'reloading' CDGs. It seems to have been real hit and miss, what disappeared. Thankfully 99% of the songs are there, but now am going through each disc in succession, looking for ones that have to be reloaded. (I thought it was my mirrored hard drives malfunctioning but it seems that others are having the same problem...)

Had the recovery with Paretolog not worked, I was ready to take the whole thing to my "geek squad' kid at Best Buy and ask for his assistance.
