My player file just got compleatly empty. No saved games for any hold. It happened after a DROD RPG crash. I guess I'll export the player more carefully in the future ;)

Hmm... It seems as if what actually happened was a total destruction of DROD RPG. As soon as I start the game up, and exit my first room, the game crashes, no matter which hold I play.

Is the recomanded course of action to uninstall everything, and then reinstall it?

How big is your player.dat currently? It could be that DROD didn't erase your player data but just garbled it instead; if you back it up, there might be a chance that someone can extract the data from it.
