I was recently working on a file for hours and kept putting off saving for some reason, big mistake!  Save Often!  I am working in 5.3 with SX10 scan data.  I have 8 scans in the drawing and was cleaning up the regions moving items from the default layer and so on.  The processing overtime was getting slower I could tell but I kept working along.  THEN AN ERROR POPPED UP.  It said to save the file, close it, and reopen it.  I noticed that a few of my regions disappeared instantly before it crashed.  I saved the file as the instructions told me to and closed the program.  I reopened the file and I am still missing the data from three of the regions that were open at the time.  Is there anything I can do besides start over?   The two regions that I was actually working on adding data to are still ok and in the file.  It was the background regions that disappeared?   I am not sure what files if any you might need to review?  I am also leaving on vacation for a week so if I don't respond it's not that I don't care I may not have access.  

I have also had this happen several times on a very large job and no I didn't touch the delete button. Start over is the only solution I could come up with.  

Check the SdeDatabase file in the TBC project folder, I have had several crashes where the scan files have been deleted. (see highlighted files in screen shot) I have gotten in the habit of maintaining a copy of this file, when the files go missing, simply copy and past the missing files back into the folder and restart TBC. In the event you don't have the files backed up, just reprocess the scan data from the survey and then copy and past the missing files into the original project. All regions should be repopulated with the appropriate scan data. Hope this helps. #missing data #TBC #Scans #SX10

I had the same issue after a software crash, after looking around I tried the Restore All (Ctrl+R) command and the missing information reappeared.
