Crash recovery somtimes loses all files

[jaw]

Hi,

Unfortunately I've had a few PL/SQL Developer crashes recently. I've noticed that sometimes when trying to recover PL/SQL will find a recovery session, you select that you want to recover it, and then it opens completely blank (removing all the recovery files in the process. I just had this happen twice in new version 16.0.4.

Did you have any other tool windows open at that time? If so, we may have a fix for this issue.

I’ve started copying the temp files manually from the session folder before hitting recover, just in case.

Hi Marco,

I don't understand what you mean with "other tool windows". I had several applications up. I may have had other PL/SQL Developer up and running. Just when I reported this I had had my machine crash, and at the time I had 4 instances of PL/SQL Developer running. I only managed to recover two of those sessions, the other two session lost all open files and unfortunately I did lose some hours of work because of it.
