What happened? I reloaded ARIS and it found my adf file, but it said it wasn't valid and immediately dropped it from the available file list. I can't find it with windows explorer but windirstat show 11 files. that is the 9 sample files, the msc... file and my file i presume. How do I recover this file please? Thanks.

Thanks for considering my fix. I have SBS 2011 and think I was storing the file on the server. I made some changes to the server setup and that's when the file got "not recognized as a valid .adf file".

Is there any server side mechanism in the program that establishes a link between a file saved from a workstation?

I didn't delete my file. There is some kind of authentication that failed. The program did not recognize its own file type and then apparently has hidden it from the directory display.

Darn!

What is a good file directory managert? Acronis?
