andrewilley Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 There is no way to see a log of what was deleted now I'm afraid. Did you delete from a list of songs, or by album names (which will delete all the contents of those albums)? Folders are not deleted by the way, so you could look for any folders that are now empty to get an idea of what song files were deleted. Andre Quote Translate Revert translation?

Pierre aber eig Peter Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 Guess it also selected Albums, i typed in the Name of the artist and selected "All" with the button on the bottom left. Sadly my Music is just in different Folders so Poweramp doesnt take too long loading. Its not like Folder XY is Album XY, its all mixed Music of diff Artists/Genres. Without Logs im kinda ruined. Thx for the reply! Quote Translate Revert translation?

Pierre aber eig Peter Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 I recovered it all with some 3rd Party Tools. This wont happen again lol, maybe its missing from Poweramp that it shows the correct number of Titles that will be deleted? Somehow it only showed the "Single-Titles" that will be deleted, not the total number with albums/folders etc. This can be closed. Thx again Quote Translate Revert translation?

andrewilley Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I'm glad you've got your missing files back. When you restored them, did you find what the common factor was that caused PA to delete them all? I'm a bit puzzled when you say that PA said it was going to delete "70" songs, as none of the Delete prompts that I've just checked mention any numbers at all, they all refer to variations of "everything in this folder & subfolders", or (perhaps slightly misleadingly) "song" or "songs" even when you've selected multiple artists for example. Could you perhaps elaborate on how exactly it happened, in case it still needs looking into as an issue? Maybe even trying the steps again - but without accepting the final "Delete" prompt of course!
