Dave,
I've had a similar trouble with the country.dat file here. Every couple
of months it does a disappearing act, just to give me something to do. I
keep a backup copy in the main directory just in case.

Nice when I answer my own trouble ticket. I unzipped a older country file
download from March (that I had downloaded manually). Copied the
country.dat file into the save directory. When I restarted DX4WIN, all was
okay. My country totals going back to 1967 all matched. I then did the
auto update of the country file to the latest version -- which shows
26-May-2023. I assume I am back up and running. Not sure why I corrupted
the country file.

Subject: [Dx4win] Fatal error
When I try to open DX4WIN, I am getting a fatal error:
Country.dat is missing.
When I look in the save directory, I see the country.dat file. Would it be
corrupted? I did have an unusual shut down this afternoon which prompted me
to save the backup.
How do I reload a new country.dat file?
Thanks,
Dave, N4QS
