Thank you so much. I'd prefer my postal address not to be viewable by everyone - do you have a private email address I can use?

Otherwise, check your hard drive for corruption and not only the Ecco file. Please give me your physical address, I will try to locate an Ecco user in the UK closest to your location.

However, it seems that the .bk1 and 2 files are automatically overwritten so I don't think I have one from the time when Ecco was working normally. I suspect the same thing happens with my external hard drive. I have a different, very small .eco file which seems to be working normally still on my laptop. I believe my husband has a copy of my .eco file on his computer but he is away at present. I don’t know if mentioning those two is relevant or not. > >2) When I go to File > Properties, under 'Connected to Master file' it says N/A.

If that's the case I'll ask a computer expert about all the background stuff and send what you need but this person won't be familiar with Ecco. I think I must be the only person in the UK who uses it!
