also search for k7bv.~xl file. Rename it to k7bvBACKUP.dxl
This file contains the last backup in case your normal log is also corrupted

Dennis,
Do not install Dx4win in the program files directory; that directory is
treated differently and does not work well for DX4WIN and many other
programs.
Download the installer from the website and run it; by default is goes into
the root directory of the C Drive.
Copy your license file to the new directory.
Copy your files from the old Save directory to the new Save directory.
Start the program

A few days ago my computer locked on me with DX4WIN open. Normally, this
kind of occurrence is not big deal. A worse I end up with a new "backup
file" and no log data is lost. Wow, not this time! Now I cannot open
DX4WIN no matter what. Fortunately I have adi.backup up through a week
before the crash but the missing log has two new DXCC in it - of course!
After a near heart attack thinking my logs are lost, I thought I better beg
for some help from the pros on here.
Now when I attempt to open DX4WIN, this message pops up: "A fatal error
has occurred. The file: C\PrpgramFiles\dxw903/SAVE\country.dat is
missing". I have obtained the most recent copy of this file from the
dx4win source and inserted it in my dx4wn file. I should note there was
already a country.dat file so I deleted is, assuming it was corrupted. No
luck after inserting the new country,dat file; same error message.
I would be externally grateful is someone would help me out so that I can
recover my complete log.
