Description

Short bug Info:

  1. I don't need your help. Just writing the weird bug for your information. (I have backup)
  2. I lost all weakauras without any reason. I didn't do anything. Just lost them after logging in to the game.
  3. I didn't change any game files. Game didn't crash. The version of the game didn;t update. I lost all data without without the trace.
  4. I think that I am not the only one. At the same day my friend lost weakauras data for his class ?!?!
  5. It feels like weakauras completely restarted to the fresh one that was installed without any additional data.
  6. For me it happened around 20:00 29.05.2022 CEST

Long bug Info.
I lost all weakauras after doing nothing. I just logged off. Sleep + casual off computer day. I came back to home to play the raid next day and I lost all my weakauras. As Informatics student I can't find any outside reason why could it happen besides other addons. I didn't have any crashes and I wasn't changing anything in game files. I decided to write about it because I don't think I am the only person. Lucky me I have backup somewhere so I will just download it. All my weakauras weren;t using some risky functions that were supposed to be removed from WOW Api soon like the addon told before so I just wanted to share it.

It happened when I had many addons like Elvui and others but my friend didn;t have them. I checked the weakauras data without addons and with them but nothing changed and in the file that shows Weakauras data is the standart data.

Maybe the problem was the old version when 4.0 became avaible

We don't control the saving/restoring process. There's a well-known wow bug that sometimes leads to addon loosing data, which we can't do anything about. Blizzard is aware since a few years.
