The folder is still where it always was; everything is still intact. It;'s just lost my list of groups - anyway of getting them back.

Please note I've not deleted any files, or otherwise changed them.

What happens if you open Newsbin by double clicking the .nbi file?

Same - they're still gone.

SPOOL_V6 still contains many gb of data.

Just noticed, GROUPS.DB3 is about 10.3 mb, but I noticed it's date is back in november; all other dates are around 17-20 december.

"options/Load Backup Config on Restart".

Now restart and try a couple of the backups. Sounds like something wiped the groups and/or you're loading an old NBI files. I'd probably pick the largest backup.

I didn't realise the nzb file stored groups - when I'd checked em out with notepad there had been nothing in. :)

Cheers, it worked.

Most of the configuration is in the NBI file.
