    Default Traktor restarted, and erased everything!

    I was organizing traktor, and when I quite, and reopened it traktor had me go through the set up wizard, and after that everything was gone except some remix sets. After some research and frustration I decided to update traktor to 2,8.1.

    I don't know why this would happen, and is very weird. What can I do to get all my organization, and clean up work back?

    It took me hours to do,and I would hate to have to do it all over again.

    you could have saved some time and copied the backup settings & collection files created after each session

    I do have some backup traktor collections, but they are from the older version. Is that an issue? Thanks for the helpful advice:

    I'm so confused as to why it would do this though. It's so CRAZY IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY! So what's an efficient way to create a back up?

    Had the same issue a couple of hours before a gig too. Pushed me over the edge to dump Traktor for CDJ's and vinyl afterwards :P

    It's a huge bummer. So what would be a good way to back up?
