Upgrade StorageLibrary disappeared and no backup
Hi,
I imported something to Zotero today and discovered it is now the only thing in my library. I have not installed any updates or knowingly changed any files. The zotero.sql file is in the expected place, but clearly (virtually) empty and I cannot find any other copies. Online, I can see the full library which says it has 19 pages, but the arrows are greyed out and searching for things I know are in there turns up nothing. Apparently my "collections" also cannot be seen online.
I have not backed up the file since I only started using Zotero a few months ago and thought the library would all be available online. Clearly this was a mistake.
Is there any way to recover this, or if not, at least any idea of what might have happened so this does not happen again?
Any help would be much appreciated!
