Lost text after reloading file from Workspace

My files are all in workspace Main.tws.

Yesterday I opened TP and there were no files in the Doc Selector so I reloaded them manually via win Explorer but didn't do anything about the Workspace as I didn't know about it.

I made some changes to a file.

Today I found out about Workspaces and reloaded Main.tws and found out my recent changes to the file were lost and replaced by the line: \\//``~~~BackuP

Can I access the changes? There's no recent file in that folder where they could be.

Thanks,
Peter

There's another file in the a different folder that's been updated twice a day over the same period which DIDN'T lose its changes!
I would really like to see what I lost in the first file as it's my development log and I'm finally getting into Android after a long time-out.

I can't see how to update my orig post w/o Posting a Reply but then I have to cut-and-paste the title too! What gives? I mean how can it have a title of Post a Reply if there's no subject? And I have to select a forum? Don't computers have memories?

If there's no backup settings in TP, then TP didn't back up your changes. Do you have some other backup method in place?
