Post From: data file inside sierra chart malfunction

This is not in file named “Backups”.

It is in file named “Data”.
My version was in data file under my assigned file name and after file it “tacked on”, “added on”, “.backup”

The file “8Z6” which got “.backup” added on is 4.46 MB.

My newly saved “8Z7” version (with new) study additions saved as 90.1 KB.
It is NOT ALL there...

If I email you my newly saved version of 8Z7 file there is no way it will correctly open...
I can’t email this to myself and save a copy in my yahoo email account...
As 80-90% of newly saved 8Z7 still resides inside the older 8Z6 file...
In order for 8Z7 version to work on another machine it will have to connect to the previous months of work stored in 8Z6 older version....
I have no intention of distributing this work! But very much wish to safely save it...

This just started happening in “data” file.
None have ever saved old version as “.backup” tagged on! This is a brand new event as I check “Data” file every single time for correct time/date stamp after hitting save button...
