Just to let you guys know, I am among the living...LOL...I am having computer issues, we think my hard drive that has all my embroidery stuff on it died...YIKES! We have a back up of it, but I have lost the last 2 days of designs I was working on.....boo hoo.....so as soon as I get up and running again, will have to redo the new designs again...<br /><br />

ugh!! Wish me luck!!
UPDATE....Jim got me up and running all thanks to the backup.....I only lost one design I had finished, and I am also upgraded to windows 10 and so far everything works......will feel better once I can stitch to make sure my machine synched up with Win 10.....Thanks for all your good wishes and positive vibes.......they worked!

So sorry to hear about your loss. I use carbonite which is a daily backup. It costs about $5 per month. I know your techie hubby will take care of it.

Thinking of you and I know hubby will help you I'm sure. I hope you can retrieve them, they are usually there amongst the computer's core. Hope you will be back up soon and running on all cylinders! Love Chris

Sorry for your problems. I recently up graded to 10 also and was dragging my feet because I saw so many were having problems with Bernina software. Are you still using Bernina? Kay
