Karen are the files really gone (can't find them with Windows Explorer) or are they not being found in Hoster?

gone. I did a search for them through Explorer. Everytime I do a search for .kma files, the number of them found drops - half as many today as yesterday, after spending all day reloading Pioneers. I have a backup copy on an external harddrive, but like i said in the above post, based on what I found when I tried to locate songs after the recovery, and the files appeared to be there but were EMPTY (only the names, nothing contained within the file), I believe my backup probably contains a lot of empty .kma files. Not going to try and run it through this current software as it may corrupt whatever I have been able to salvage.

Just sick about this...Hundreds and hundreds of hours already done, and hundreds of hours to do it again. I can't afford to spend that much time again, I'm thinking - doesn't make sense.

It would sound to me as if a harddrive were going bad, or possibly a virus.

I know it is assumable that hoster did it since you just did an upgrade. I have also been using it forever, and have never seen anything like this. I keep 2 backups of my harddrive. a drive can go out for no reason, and without notice.

This is NOT an upgrade, this is my first Hoster software. I have a BRAND new computer...I have NO idea what I"m going to do now. bad taste in my mouth after hundreds of hours. Maybe it is the harddrive. Will take it to my geek.

I don't understand why you are slamming MTU on the karaokescene technical forum when MTU is trying to help?

I am using 3.319 on my laptop for my shows. It has never deleted a single song. I could Imagine something else you have done on the computer might have, or the drive going out. You should search for the problem, and not blindly blame them.

It's called venting...At my wit's end as you might imagine. I have no idea what my recourse will be yet. Sorry if this offends you. You can't imagine the frustration level right now in my house. Am researching all possibilities as to why this has happened and at this point am ready just to continue using CDGs....
