Hello,
sry to trouble you again, but I serviced my XY yesterday (holiday between the public holidays) and labelled all scripts in the comment's column->
picture taken:28.12.2025 17:43:54
and during the course of the day, the XY crashed (I am using the 28.10.0203 beta).
It seems that it did not take over any of the adjustments I made->

Now, the XY has a built-in backup function (I hope I have understood correctly.), so I wanted to know if it is possible that it has saved these adjustments so that I can retrieve them?

Re: Restore backup
That backup function kicks in when you save settings, not when it crashes.
Look in your AutoBackup folder and check if the tag.dat file has anything left from what you did.
Probably not though...
You should really activate this for the future
Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Save Settings | [x] Save changes to disk immediately
and in the "Apply to..." config window activate the "Tags" part

Re: Restore backup
You can use text recognition software or online to retrieve and restore your tags from the screenshot quickly enough.
Re: Restore backup
Not sure if it is too late, or if you are even interested, but I wrote a quick script that should re-apply the comments again for you based on OCR, the 4 items that are end truncated you will of course have to add the last few chars again afterwards. I didn't thoroughly check the OCR accuracy, but it looks pretty good to me from a glimpse.
Code: Select all

Re: Restore backup
Thank you very much, Jupe
I rewrote everything again yesterday, but I probably should
have just waited a bit and had some coffee
instead.
I'm tempted to just try out this script, but I made two changes yesterday.
Thanks again, much appreciated.

I'm tempted to just try out this script, but I made two changes yesterday.
- 1) I completely deleted the ColumnEdit Directory – because I can't use it without errors.
- 2) I deleted the CTBToolTipTitle Directory and moved the script to the base Directory – because this script has no dependencies and therefore doesn't clutter up my script folder.
Thanks again, much appreciated.

Re: Restore backup
Let me know if you can reproduce that crash. It cannot be tolerated.

Re: Restore backup
Unfortunately, I can’t fully reconstruct it, as I had many tabs open — including some network paths that were also open in TC for FTP file copying.
At some point, XY froze and crashed (for the first time in about 8 months of "intensive" use).
It’s also possible that my HP 250 G5 notebook played a role.
