When i downloaded scratch 1.3, it deleted all the projects i made!

I keep my projects in the same files as the samples, so i guess that's what happened...is there any way to get them back?
at least i uploaded most of my projects...

Re: When i downloaded scratch 1.3, it deleted all the projects i made!

i just had the same problem when i downloaded it about 5 mins ago

it doesnt delete the files though, its just seems to be that they arent compatible, and therefore dont show up (which is just as bad)

this is what i did to find my files:

start
v
my computer
v
C: drive
v
program files
v
Scratch
v
projects

then click the button in the toolbar which says "compatibility files", your files should appear

see, all your files are still there ^_^

i just wish i could access the files, but the installer removes whatever version you had previously

-EDIT-

ive worked out how to get the files back

go to the directory where the files are stored

open the file directly from its folder

and save it in the new scratch


they should work now (i havent tested this yet though)
