[GNC] No Suitable Backend Found

[Adam Hodnett]

Thanks so much for the help. I tried opening the recovered files on my old
mac laptop. It said an older version of the file wasn't found and wouldn't
open, so I copied everything back to the desktop (it's original location),
and it opened. But when I try to open the most recent version (up to Feb
2021), it automatically only opens a version that goes to June 2019. Seems
like an odd glitch.

Luckily this is a far better situation than I thought I was in, so I'm just
getting back to work from here. But I thought I'd float that info your way
in case it sheds some sort of insight.

Again, thanks so much for the help everyone! I'm not where I hoped to be,
but at least this isn't devastating anymore.
