    If I have to reenter all the links from scratch am I going to have reset all the devices to rewove the old links, I'd rather not do to the time evolved with resetting 100+ devices

      what plugin version are you running? do you seen any extra insteon.ini files in the config folder? there should be some additional homeseer.hsd files in the data folder

      can you post some screen pics of these folders

            is there anything in the insteon.ini.tmp file? look at the insteon error report.log file. there should be the content of the insteon;.ini at the bottom of the file. content will start with [config]

            copy the content to the insteon.ini, and save

            shutdown hs before you do any of this

            what about the homeseer data folder? post a pic of that folder

              Nothing in the insteon.ini.tmp file. I'll attach the error report.log file. I guess i can't it won't let me. There is nothing significant after "config" in the fileClick image for larger version

                zip the error report log and attach it. you may may need to rename the zip file extension to .txt instead of .zip

                    is there anything in the homeseer backup folder?

                    is there a homeseer backup zip on your desktop? what's in there?

                        81 registered insteon devices in this file. you will need to shutdown hs,
                        put a "copy" of this insteon.ini into the config folder (overwrite the existing),
                        rename the data\homeseerdata.hsd to homeseerdata.hsd.old
                        and also rename one of the data\homeseerdata_x.hsd files to homeseerdata.hsd then restart hs and see if your insteon devices appear.

                        not sure how far back on the homeseerdata_x files to go. depends on when your system crashed.

                        check the hs log after you startup and post any insteon entries

                          Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Mark. Almost all devices and associated event programing is working. A handful of newer devices I will re-add Besides the two files we recovered what other files should I regularly backup?

                            Glad to help. I would recommend two things:

                            (1) updating to my latest beta, i've built in some backup routines that will make copies of the insteon.ini file for you and also save the insteon.ini content to a custom homeseer device; (2) backup everything in your homeseer folder anytime you make changes to your setup; you just never know what will go wrong
