Latest alpha build broken ?
« on: 18 04 2016, 09:54:57 »
Hi,
Today I updated (automatically) to Miranda NG Version: 0.95.5 alpha build #16710 x64, Build time: 18 Apr 2016 4:10:08.
And upon restart nothing works (the Miranda NG window appears but no network can cannot and I cannot check for updates).
Any idea anyone ? How to recover ?
Thanks
-Pierre

To recover, you could try shutting miranda down, going into miranda folder and then:

Miranda\Plugin Updates\Backups\

and copy the entire content of the "backups" folder into the miranda "root" directory, saying "yes" to overwrite all the files. That way, you should be back to the state you were at before the update.

Thanks ! However I do not see a "Miranda\Plugin Updates\" folder nor a "Backups" subfolder.

If you used the plugin updater to update, then:

Navigate to the folder where the miranda32.exe (or miranda64.exe) file is, and from this folder, you should be able to see the "Plugin Updates" folder, and inside it, the "Backups"

Solved ! I downloaded "Miranda NG Version: 0.95.5 alpha build #16716 x64" and reinstalled over the failing one and it works back. Please developers double check your deliveries.
