Probe Data Missing

Hey everyone,
Having some trouble with some missing data from my 1MMX20MM (actual probe name). I used this probe yesterday afternoon, right up until I went home. Came in to work this morning and that file isn't showing all my tips or the probe build (can still select it as a probe to use, just has no data).
All of my other probes are fine, this one stayed in the head over night.
What would cause this? And how screwed am I? 80% of my programs use this guy and it had 65 tip angles. I really don't want to have to create a new file.

PCDMIS 2023.1

Any suggestions on cause and/or remedy would be appreciated! Thanks

    Verify that the directory that contains your probe data files is not read-only.

    Check for file backups of the probe directory files. I know if files are linked to one-drive for windows u can roll back to a previous file revision.

    For future actions, I'd keep a backup of important files on a flash or zip drive
  • Why would the directory change to read-only overnight?
    And if it was read-only, all my other probes would be missing data too wouldn't they? Because they're all in the same directory.

    Yeah ill be backing up from now on.

    Nothing should've changed from Yesterday afternoon to now. Auto updates are off, the computer isn't even connected to the internet. Unless its related to the local server my probe files are saved on.
