Help! All my events and settings are gone. How can I get them back?
This usually happens if you install a new version of Rainlendar and choose the portable option. This makes Rainlendar to store the events and settings to a different place so it looks like your old events are gone. There is an easy fix for this:
Close Rainlendar
Go to C:\Program Files\Rainlendar2 folder
Rename rainlendar2.ini file to rainlendar2.old
Start Rainlendar
If that was not the reason why your events had disappeared there is still a chance to get them back. Rainlendar does automatic backups every time it starts so if the data folder is still available you still have hope. The location of the Rainlendar's data folder depends on your system and it is explained in FAQ#1 .
The Rainlendar's backup files are standard zip-archives. You can either use the File->Restore option in the Manager dialog to restore the backup or if that fails you can just extract the files from the archive and replace your current ones with them.
