It also says nothing about losing anything but KMA files, and intimates all the way through that Vista is causing it all.

I am not interested in reading through defense screeds -- I want a bug fix. I don't want ads for extra-cost things like SpinRite, and announcements how you are eligible to get a fix download if you bought on or after a certain date. And what is with a zillion sticky posts but not one on how to download the newest version?

I think the best thing for me to do is just finally give up on MTU. Every time I have a problem, it is a bad experience because everyone is so darned defensive. And because fixes are so darn hard to get, and because you have to beg for someone to allow you to install the darn thing. (Sometimes waiting a week or two for a response.)
Every owner of record was sent an email warning of this and advised to stop using it. Folks who ignored the warnings did so at their own peril.

That's what 3.321 is.

I didn't receive such an email to my knowledge. If one was sent, certainly the problem that caused such an extraordinary response should be detailed in the changelog. I don't see it there, at least not talking about deleting files. I see something talking about "restoring to reliability" but nothing saying this is a critical upgrade that all users should perform.

I would appreciate it if you can point me to the ChangeLog entry describing where it fixes problems with deleting random files during normal operation. I see mentions of KMA files on Vista, or on upgrade or install. But I see nothing in red describing a critical upgrade regarding data loss.
