Upgrading from 3.0.6 to 3.0.7 wiped Ratings

[LumensAquilae]

I just upgraded from 3.0.6 to 3.0.7 and in the process it completely wiped my ratings from hundreds of files, all FLAC. Clicking the "restore ratings" button newly added does nothing.

Any hope that I can get them back or were they wiped in the version upgrade?

@LumensAquilae I'm moving this issue to the https://github.com/digimezzo/dopamine repository as dopamine-windows is for the older Dopamine 2.

Could you attach your log file to this issue? This was in no way supposed to happen.
Could you also attach you Dopamine.db file? I need to check what happened inside.

Thank you.

Gladly! The db file is a copy that I renamed the extension to .txt as it wouldn't let me attach a .db file.

Thank you for investigating!

Could you check if a ratings backup file was created in your Music\Dopamine folder? If yes, could you attach it here as well? Thanks.

ratings-backup.json

Here it is.

@LumensAquilae Thanks for the files. Unfortunately, all ratings are 0, in the DB as well as in the backup. I don't understand how this happened. Did you remove and re-add these tracks at some point?

[LumensAquilae]

Nope, the library never moved. It was just a seemingly simple download of the new version and installation.

I'm sorry, there is no way to recover the ratings. I can't explain what happened. I'm using this experience to make rating backup and restore more robust though, in order to avoid this in the future. Version 3.0.8 will have this more robust approach.

I figured that was the case, but thanks for looking into it. Hopefully the issue can be found before it hits anyone else.
