Help, Clips magically missing from timeline

PostTue Jun 08, 2021 3:22 am

Before I go further I not have backup saves and wasn't aware of it. It was set to live by default for some strange reason and I didn't get around to duplicating the timeline. ( I got so caught up I forgot). When I started this project it sort of just channeled out of me and I was editing like a made man forgetting to set up backup settings.
I had what was a full 84-minute feature (my first ever) finally don't after 5 years of pondering it.
Yesterday it was completely fine.
Today I go in to add new hots I did for a pickup and all the edits from my timeline are magically gone and delete. The media pool clips and bins are there but the timeline is now blank WTF. Someone, please help. I can't go back in time and fix the past and turn on auto backup.

Can someone help me with a solution to fix this, please? I literally just made a Criterion collection documentary that no one will probably ever seen now because the whole thing is gone. PLEASE HELP :-(

Do u have more than one timeline?
if could be that you have worked for example on timeline 1 and now the selection above the edit page timeline viewer is selected to timeline 2, which is empty?

NO, It seems the file got corrupted due to a windows registry error. I have no backups. I'm trying to find some on my drive deleted files using EAS but none of the found DB files will load up.
