I tend to agree. The Organizer message means what it says: the file
OrgData which it is trying to open (in Choices or within !Organizer) does
not have 'OrgData' in the first 7 bytes of the file. Therefore it assumes
it is not a valid OrgData file. The file OrgData-bak should contain the
file before the last update, or depending on your settings, you may have
a valid recent backup in Organizer.Backups.

Sounds like it might be disc corruption.  Have you tried DiscKnight?

Further to my posting just now, Organizer has been affected or is also
involved. When I try to load it the error message "file does not start
with orgdata" appears. It has been overwritten by NS.
