Can't find media files after hard drive crash

Post by MarkAndrews »

I'm trying to recover from a hard drive crash on a rebuilt computer. I'm running VisualStudio Pro 9 on Windows 10. My original configuration on the computer that crashed was everything simply on my C drive. After the disk crashed, I was able to enlist the help of a company specializing in data recovery to retrieve all of the files off my old C drive. My new (old) computer now has a 256GB SSD as it's C drive that has Windows and the reinstall of VisualStudio Pro on the drive. Everything else (My Documents, Pictures, My Projects etc) is now on my E drive. I've been able to rebuild my projects through relinking but I cannot find any of the Media folders that I was using or the custom Title screens that I built. Does anyone know where those files are normally located?

The files are in ....AppData\Roaming\Ulead Systems\Corel VideoStudio Pro (x64)\19.0\en-US folder
and the file you are missing is VS_AllMediaView.dat
The folder 19.0 is your savior, if that folder content was not resqed than you must start from scratch.
It's is recommended to backup this folder from time to time once one saves many media favorites.
