Had a chartbook full of charts the contents of which simply disappeared and the saved backup charts folder is also now blanked out. None of other chartbooks were affected. Is there way to check/trace outside activity in account? The saved chartbook file was last affected 08-27 but that was not done by me. Can steps be taken to retrace and see what happened in account that day? Log files must be saved somewhere, be good to be able to go through them.

This must have been caused by some system issue on your side. Sierra Chart would not delete any files in that folder.

There are no log files within Sierra Chart for something like this.

When a Chartbook is saved, there is a log line generated if there is an error and that would be in the Window >> Message Log. In case there is any problem, you can enable this option to save the Message Log to a file:
General Settings Window: Save Message Log to File (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Log >> Log)
