To make a long story short:
I did a backup copy of the actual beersmith install then, I formatted my C drive.
After reinstalling the OS and BS the recipes were gone, even when started from the backup. What I didn't know was that my files were saved in "Documents" on the C drive. Which of course was the system disc that was formatted.
I did however manage to find a program that recovered my deleted files from the formatted drive and restored them.
There are several types of recipe files and I did just as you also describedand in other posts and renamed those old files and moved to the new directory.
Beersmith however cant open the files in question. It says "Error importing file" on any file i try to open which was recovered.
Are thees files somehow corrupted?
