Re: [Dx4win] FAILURE OF MY PROGRAM

Alan,

That backup approach will work but creates a potential problem. DX4WIN will
remember the last log saved which is now on a USB stick. If you reopen your
log in your regular directory the problem goes away.

Go to C:/dx4w906/save and look for kr9a.dxl or any file ending with
the .dxl extension. This is your log. If not there go to your WIN
search box (lower left corner of your display) and search for
KR9A.DXL. If/when you find this file copy and paste to the above SAVE
folder. Your .dxl log file may have somehow gotten saved in a
different folder. Or is your call W9KO as in your email address?

I have had problems in the past opening DX4WIN due to a missing CTY
file. I go to the  dx4w906/backup folder, find the last country.dat
file, and copy and paste it into the dx4w906/save folder. DX4WIN will
now open with the old country file. Do an UPDATE to get the latest
county file.

I suggest going frequent back up of my .dxl file. Easy to do by going
to FILE: SAVE AS. When the SAVE AS window opens right click on your
.dxl file.
A window will open. Select SEND TO and select a device to save the
file (I use a thumb drive). Your .dxl file will be saved to what ever
device you have chosen.

Hi All

I opened my dx4win program 4 Aug 2021 and it said Cant find your log,
same computer I have used for 2 years ,, so I looked all over and I
couldn’t find it either  and the path seems to have vanished .  I did
not do anything different. Has this happened to anyone else?  I did
reload the computer but no help Did a new windows update affect me?
Thanks Bil   KR9A
