Some yahoo unplugged my system the other night and now my database is corrupt (I get that message when I start the program). I didn't realize VDJ didn't auto back that up. My bad. My very bad bad. I went to check it, and when I open the xml file, it is a blank document, even though it's 389K in size. Is the file junk, or is it somehow magically recoverable?
Any help would be great.
P.S. Yes, I know I need to get an UPS.

I got a similar problem a while ago, checked with the support team and the answer was that it could not be recovered. The only solution is to either back it up frequently or have a program such as Norton Ghost.
I know this will not recover your database now but I hope it helps.

This is what I was afraid of. I had no idea I shoulda been backing that up. Was that in the manual some place??? I will be from now on though! It's only 40K songs...lol

Sometimes it can be repaired, open it with notepad.
</VirtualDJ_Database> needs to be the bottom line.
You may have lost some, but this can recover most of it.
