Ignition 7.8.2  
Windows 2012

I have lost my tags, they are no longer showing up in the Tag Browser, has anyone else seen this, or know what would cause this?

I saw it for the first time last week while trying to run my project and thought maybe I did something to delete the tags somehow. So I exported my project, restored an earlier gwbk, imported my project and was back in business. Then, a couple days later, I was getting errors trying to run my project again and I checked the Tag Browser again, and the tags were gone, again. Still, I thought this can’t be happening, I must have done something wrong, so again I exported my project, restored previous gwbk, imported project, back in business.

But it has just happened for a third time. Any help on what might be causing this is appreciated.

Thank you  
Bob

Thank you! Since 7.8.3 is now available I think I will go directly to that.
