Product Version = NetBeans IDE 8.0.2 (Build 201411181905) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_80 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.80-b11 I have a java console project that I have been working on consistently for the last few weeks. Opening the project today I find 8 java files have had their contents cutoff at the bottom. I have no idea right now how many lines I've lost in each file as I am just too upset to concentrate on it. I am also missing at least one file that I added to the project yesterday. I used a recovery tool on the external drive that the project is on and was able to see the .class file for the file that is missing, but can't find the java source file. HOW COULD THIS HAVE HAPPEND????!!!!???? Weeks worth of work are completely gone. I have backups but I made extensive changes yesterday. How can I recover the files? history? what? This can't be possible, what possible solutions can you provide for how I can recover from this fiasco?
Created attachment 154411 [details] IDE log
Exceptions in the attached log file indicate this was a problem with the external storage. Incorrectly detached USB flash disk? Or a HW problem? You may try looking for the previous versions of your files in the local history. See the file structure under {userdir}/var/filehistory. http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqWhatIsUserdir The files with numeric filenames are in zip format. You can try unzipping them to get the content.
