      Ok, I spent a good part of yesterday, adding to my rigging components, alignment lines and faces, with a layer called Align-Hide. And I could save and re-open each and every modified file.

      Now, this morning, there is only one trace of each modified file, that is a shortcut in my user file under Ken, AppData, Roaming, Google. And that shortcut can’t find the missing files. Even SketchUp does not have the files listed under recent files used. I mean, they just disappeared. Not even in the recycle bin.

      So what happen? I have admin rights. Boy do I miss XP.

      Thanks

        I've never heard of such a problem or come across anything like that in my time with Vista. Boy do I not miss XP.

        Why was it under this roaming location? Did you do the work on a memmory stick and then unplug it?

          Do you have a 'compatibility files...' area on the top bar when you open the folder where they should be ? Sometimes Vista moves files into special sub-folders 'to protect you'... It happens to me when I tweak a ruby script but when I run it the old version runs because Vista's put the new one in this stupid folder so I won't do anything bad !!!

          .
          Good luck...
