Hi Dan,

I'm glad you have your data back and just lost 2 files. It gives me a 
bit of ... hope :))

The error I've got was :
--------------------------------------------

           "r5" hash is selected

--------------------------------------------

What just doens't make any sens to me.

I'm using version  3.6.19.

If you have any ideas ...
