|
|
Lost half of my collection tonight when I ran GBA renamer,
Under zipping I selected zipe roms
renamed roms with in zip-files
split multi-rom=-zips
keep all files with in zip files.
When I first it it unzipped them all, my bad
now when i went to archive them on a DVD-R I wanted to fit as many as I could on to a single DVD.
I watched with horror as my computer with blinding speed when through the first 600 roms and zipped them to 1K each with the error file saying that....
..."12/25/2004 2:54:22 PM - 'F:\Renamed GBA Roms\0025 - Super Mario Advance (U)(Eurasia).gba.zip' doesn't contain a rom"
All of this before I could grab my mouse and stop the process. Any hope for recovery? I am guessing not.
Anyone hear of this happening before? The only other thing that I can think of is that I had winRAR open to the same folder but it was not running.
Let me know what you think!

Figuring I had little to lose by running renamer again this time with out winrar running, the process was smooth and renamer zipped them cleanly.
I would caution against having WINRAR open while running renamer, this is the only thing that I can't think of that would get in the way.
Besides who needs the first 600 or so roms

sorry to hear you lost them, gba-renamer can be a very picky thing when it comes to it's settings.
