Your last backup was that long before? This bug couldn't possibly
overwrite
all previous files?
I had only worked a day on it since the last backup. It was a
revision/re-orchestration of an existing work. It was faster to
reconstitute the score from the parts (about an hour, not including
screwing around with copying experiments) than to do the day's work
over again (it was a really long day!)
I saw your method, and have resolved many new years in a row to do
something like that, but I am always too rushed. (Ha! Nothing like
losing a file to slow you down, eh?) Mostly I drag my Documents folder
over to an external drive once a day, and burn a CD or so every month
or so.
Your method certainly looks like it works. I just have to think of it...
