Arc, I have now upgraded to 2.7.0 and running in portable FF14.0.1 - with TiddlyFox and will return to this set of problems later as I have lost so much time so far. I must say that all the in and outs with tiddlwiki save/import/export and backups (Less backups plugin not working) is eroding my confidence in tiddlyWiki, though so far it has not forced me to consider abandoning it, I have so much invested in it.
Hopefully those with the power to can try and stabalise these problems. Thanks All.
