Where are the Rating Tags stored?
I had a hard drive crash and the restoration app created a bit of mess in the folder structure so I'm manually restoring all my XYPlorer tags and I've had success with the 'Tags' & 'Comments' but I had also created an extra 'Rating' column which I would now like to restore as well. I thought the 'Rating' would have been located in the Tag.dat file like the Tags & Comments were but no so...can someone tell me where they are located or are they lost?!

They are stored in the tag.dat file.
Show the part "Extra Tags:" part of your tag.dat file...
Show the part "Extra Tags:" part of your tag.dat file...

Re: Where are the Rating Tags stored?
As you replied I was in fact editing my OP....
I had in fact just realised that they were there but...for some reason they are not appearing in XYPlorer. In fact, I now see that there are also a whole bunch of Tags & Comments that are also lacking! They appear correctly with the proper path in the tag.dat file but are just not showing up in XYPlorer??
Any idea what could be going on here? It's very odd because I have side by side tags that are in the .dat and in XY and other just in the .dat

Em...
How is the rating column setup exactly?
Show the part "Extra Tags:" part of your tag.dat file
Show a real entry of that file and a screenshot of what is displayed in XY for it
Tags and comments are lacking...
Again, show some entries from the file and a screenshot of XY with that path open and a few of them in view...

Re: Where are the Rating Tags stored?
Well, something interesting happened...
I just copied a folder with ratings and comments into that restored HD and right before my eyes, as the new file was dropped in, suddenly the other file which had it's rating and comments missing appeared with...rating and comments!?
having +600 tags, it's kind of hard for me to be sure they are all there now but apparently they will maybe gradually re-update themselves as I copy in new folders with ratings and comments! Go figure...
Here's what you asked:
Extra Tags:
Rating|4|0|0|||||
|0|0|0|||||
|0|0|0|||||
|0|0|0|||||
|0|0|0|||||
As for the other things you asked, I'll have to track some down but right now it's past midnight where I am and I have to work early tomorrow so I'll pick this up tomorrow.
Thanks for the support! :-)
