I have a similar issue to the ones discussed above, but now when I open beersmith nothing appears at all..and I mean nothing! No styles, no yeast, no sample recipes, nothing under the 'views' section. I even performed various searches for the .bsm files but couldn't find them. I even went as far as installing a data recovery program to try and find them, but they didn't appear to be deleted.
I tried deleting the newopts14.opts file as suggested first, but after this didn't work, I also deleted the newopts.opts. They would disappear from the folder and then I would try to open beersmith back up, but the same problem was occurring. After closing it back out, those two .opts files reappeared in the directory again. I don't know if all my recipes are lost in translation and if I can get them back again? Should I uninstall then reinstall the program? I don't want to go that route if that means I will lose all my data.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Darrin
