My computer froze when I was opening a few files.  I have to manually restart my computer.  Now all of my actions are gone how could this have happened? These take hours to recreate!

    Then there is no problem, right? If you have them saved, just load the saved .atn files back in again and all is well (or replace the .psp file).

    If you are lucky you may have a system backup of the required file somewhere… All is explained here:

    Sound like you have created an action but not save it the created action... due to unsave action, when your PC restarted all  the created action is gone.. so there's no others to get back that just created.. so now you have to re create it again. And this time save it the action.

    No these are actions I have been using for ages.  They have been saved.  Thanks for the response.
