Describe the bug

Hi, I have been using the extension for some university work. But today it closed by itself and I get the message of: Opps DataLoom cannot render file Error message Unexpected end of JSON input

I opened the corresponding .loom file to do the suggested steps, but the file IS EMPTY!!!! I already checked the recycle garbage can and there is nothing, how can I retrieve the information I had in the file?

Hi. That is bizarre. This is the first issue of that ever happening. You don't have any backups of your files?

Do you still have the tab open with a table loaded? If not, there's nothing that can be done.

OMG, so I lost all the information that was in the file???? I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, I just added a new record and I got the error!!!!

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

Did you just update to the lasted version of Obsidian?

This might be an issue that just surfaced, not sure.

I have not updated Obisdian. The only thing I did was to add a new row and I got the error. I didn't do anything "strange". The information I had was very important...

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

Sorry, I was on my phone. Looking back at this on desktop. What operating system are you using? EDIT: sorry I see that you provided that

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

Do you happen to have File History Feature enabled for windows? EDIT: it would have had to been enabled before this occurred

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

Btw it does look like Obsidian updated for you. 1.5.11 is the latest version

RoboG-11 commented 3 months ago

I do not have this function enabled. I already tried to restore old versions of the .txt, but they do not exist.

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

Okay. I'm thinking in this case the only thing that you can do would to try to use data forensics software to find pieces of the data that still exist. You could index your drive and search via keywords. However, it is possible that only part of the data exists. I have actually never done this but this is the only solution I found.

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

Since the data is empty, the file was overwritten and that is actually harder to recovery than a file being deleted.

RoboG-11 commented 3 months ago

Okay, I guess and there is no way to recover the data....

decaf-dev commented 3 months ago

I'm very sorry about that. I cannot guarantee that the plugin will work 100% of the time due to how updates come and make changes that are sometimes breaking.

I would recommend using the Obsidian Local Backup plugin from now on. That way you can always have a backup available

RoboG-11 commented 3 months ago

Okay, don't worry. I understand what it's like to run a project alone. I will try to use the extension you recommend. Thanks
