    I had to use the older version of name ampping file that was saved in a different location.

    Now we have a Git Repo for QA to save the Test complete files with versioning through TFS. Thsi will save the name mapping file with dates and will have versions.

You can search your drive for NameMapping.tcNM

Perhaps you accidentally changed the directory.

 

Do you not have your files in a version control of some sort?  Or backed up to another drive at the very least?  If I don't want to do a check-in, I copy the day's work to my user drive that is on the network in case my laptop dies.

Test Complete is on a VM within a VM. I did not do any directory changes.

Lesson learned i should have copied it somewhere else on a daily basis.

 

What do I do to find the file?

I have the file in anotherr environment which is like from September 10, but teh most difficult work was done on Monday September 16th.

 

How can I retrieve the Sepetember 16th name mappiong file?
