PokerTracker

my pt2 caught a virus, back door trojan, was spotted by avg scanner, so i panicked and uninstalled it, and re installed it.

obviously i lost my entire database, is there any way to re install it, i had 250k hands.
thanks in advance

There was never any virus in the program, see here

Reinstall the program.

If it's unregistered then you'll have to send me the new product ID from the Help/About Poker Tracker window using the support system...

i have re installed pt2, but ob my old database have been erased, can i retrieve it at all?

Did you uninstall the program before you reinstalled it? If you didn't uninstall it the database files should not have been touched at all.

yeah i uninstalled pt, not the database files, for a techno retard, how do i load them up again pls

If you uninstalled PT then you also uninstalled the database file. There was no reason to do this.

Go to the c:\program files\poker tracker v2 folder. Are there files there called ptrack_backup.mdb and hhcopy.mdb ?

yeah ptbackup and hhdb it says, im on vista, theres an image of a key over the files which i presume mean they are locked, it says they are read only files
thanks adam

I'm asking about a file called hhcopy.mdb , not the hhdb.mdb file. Is there an hhcopy.mdb file there?
