Corrupted database index?

Post by coolrat »

Hi
I'm a new user, and opened a directory of photos in "FILESYSTEM" in Aftershot. I made many edits in Aftershot and exported to JPEG.
But when I went back to open the folder, none of the thumbnails appear.
Stunned, I used another application to open that folder and found that all of the photos are fine. Everything is there.

Why is Aftershot unable to "see" or read the photos in that folder? Has some part of its database become corrupted?
Can I recover the edits I made? How can this be fixed?

Thank you for any help you can provide!

PS. Using Windows 7, 16gig RAM. Aftershot 1.01.10

Theoretically the cache could be messed up.
But in this case, I guess you have a filter active that does not match the images in the directory so you see none....

Thank you for your reply.
I was hoping it might be a filter, and checked carefully. But I cannot see that any filter is being applied at all.
The images are not appearing in AFP.
Any suggestions on what I might do?

Nuke your cache (the cache directory in you user folder).
Also, check to see if there is anything interesting about that directory in the log file in your user directory.

Same thing happened once to me with Bibble, I din't understand Why. We spoke about in the forum. I had to erase the cache directly on the hard disk.
