## What do you mean the database deleted itself?

Me: Ma'am this client PC tells me your app server is the original pc we were connected to, but not the database server. I've checked our backup folder and there is no database backup but I do one every night! TLDR - Lady is confused when program won't open, looks into the problem and assumes her data is gone (which in all fairness it was). I PERSONALLY BACK UP THE COMPUTER EVERY NIGHT, AND I AM TELLING YOU THE DATABASE DELETED ITSELF. Me: And where would the backup be recovered from....

CC: The failed drive obviously. CC: Why would that even matter, the database is gone! If the drive fails your backup is also gone?
