I have encounted a problem where when i open the project in the design launcher most of my windows and templates are now gone and replaced by folders with the same name. In the gateway diagnostic logs i have about 15 notifications every 10 seconds pushing this message(This is just for one of the windows/templates):

For some unknown reason the “referance.json” got cleared on some components,
Solved the issue by going into the “reference.json” document under each component at
C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\data\projects\XXXXXX\com.inductiveautomation.vision
and adding a script based on the “reference.json” file on the components that were working.
Thankfully not much work was lost!

This ‘resources getting turned into folders’ bug is an issue high on our priority list, that we’re hoping to have fixed in 8.0.6.
