TradeLog program files and user-created data files containing imported trades are saved in different locations in a user's computer. We strongly recommend backing these files on another flash or media device.
- The default location for TradeLog set-up and program files is "c:\program files\tradelog", unless another location has been specified by the user.
- The default location for data files created by the user is "documents\tradelog"
As TradeLog data files are identified by the file extension *
.tdf, the easiest way to locate your data files on your computer is to run a search using
Windows Explorer or by using the
Search or
Find function from the
Windows Start menu. When prompted to enter a file name to search for, type in "
*.tdf" (
asterisk +
period +
tdf) and run the search. The search utility will list all TradeLog data files. Make a note of the file path to the data file you would like to open.

While making a correction to a "negative shares" issue, I clicked save while the screen was gray. I now cannot open my existing file and see my data. The file is large, and I can see it using Windows Explorer, but the tabs and the data does not show up.
Before when the file was being worked on the location was shown at the top as Users/myname/Downloads/1017 name of file.tdf.
Currently when I click that file name and open it, the location is shown as
Users/myname/Downloads/(nothing)
In other words, the actual data file does not show up at the top of the screen. What is wrong and what can I do to fix it?
