[GNC] GC CTD lost saved reports

[D]

Elmar,

I've had my saved reports disappear in the past, but never did figure out what precisely caused it; the most likely culprit (I think) was some kind of invalid character in the saved reports file.

Saved reports on Windows is in (I believe) %HOME%\AppData\Roaming, although it could be %HOME%\AppData\Local 

It will be named saved-reports-{version}; if there is more than one, pick the one that has the largest size, since you are trying to recover lost data. You can examine the contents, since it is text only, although the text may not be comprehensible, since it is report settings code. I'm also not certain, but it's possible the most recent version of saved reports is 2.8 (i.e., saved-reports-2.8), although I haven't checked since upgrading to any 3.x version.

Probably though, you should figure out what caused the crash, and report back if it seems bug related.

HTH,
David T.

Update - aqbanking data is NOT lost, just all the reports.  The program 
says I have none saved, and need to create some.
