I’ve had this issue before, but can’t find the solution anywhere…
My machine rebooted unexpectedly, and when I logged back in, all of the graphs have been flushed… what appears to have happened, is that the program doesn’t know what date/time it is (though the computer does, as well as apps that use date/time)… See the attached image…
The program has connected to my Davis VP2 console, and is reading data just fine, except for the graph info, and historical rain data has not been lost…
Does anyone know how I can recover from this??
Have a look at the suggestions here, ignoring the solution.
Well, interestingly enough, even though I didn’t have Data Backup switched ON, I still have a databackup52025.zip in the databackup folder (dated this morning at 0755, which should have valid data)… so with WD closed, I copied WDISPLAY.INI to the WeatherDisplay folder, then restarted WD…
The window flashes (redraws) three times during startup, which it didn’t do before, and then it starts running normally, and shows the 1200 tick mark, but all previous history is lost… I looked back 72 hours, and it showed nothing…
So then I went to Action → Extract Data From Davis VP Data Logger, and selected two days ago, and now I appear to have all my data… the data resolution is lower than what WD typically shows, but it looks reasonable… I guess that will do for now!!
