Have a major XY crash! Not sure what to do now?
I was doing the routine drag of a few items from one folder to another – when the screens flashed. Two of the tabs were no longer working. One that was a sub-dir of the other gave me a “Location currently not available”.
The first directory was reset to a “dog1” dir that had a very short path.
The correct “dog1” had and has a 4 or 5-level path. The Ctrl Z in XY go-back has been no help.
All the folders appear to be there – but the fancy color coding, of all the items in the tree, has been shuffled or wiped out. This hints at the possibility of major problems – in my eyes.
1. I have plenty of backups but that route will wipe out 3-4 days of work on a database.
2. Or I can patch up what I have and perhaps end up with an unsatisfactory end result. All in the D: drive.

A Win 10 go-back was created last night of the c: drive. Perhaps that is where the color coding of the tree is stored. It is all a default desktop install years ago and has worked fine until now.
I’m leaning toward option 2. Perhaps do a go-back right now – since no data should be lost.

Any suggestions? Anybody?

Crash... the screens flashed... sure what you are talking about. Did you get any error message?

No messages other than the “Location currently not available”. described above. That warning went away when a file was sent to that Dir. Apparently the two empty folders work just fine now and the contents (and sub folders) placed in a new location, found by the excellent search tools XY. Perhaps it is best to leave that alone.

Did a go-back in Win 10 - it changed nothing in XY as anticipated.
All the folders appear to be there – but the fancy color coding, of all the items in the tree, has been shuffled or wiped out. <-- Remains unchanged.
It would also be nice to get Folder View to work reliably in all directories.

You call this a major crash? I have no idea what you are talking about, but it certainly does not seem to have anything to do with a crash.

Semantics or meanings of words difference.
I call it a crash when suddenly file structures are altered for no reason and Undo is not possible. This was not the Blue Screen Of Death or BSOD from the DOS days. Does this even exist in Win.
I am sharing this information in the hope that either I or others are helped.
