Hi Tapforms Pro,
I have been using Tapforms 5 and recently in the May 2025, I have migrated to taprooms pro. Today when I restarted my laptop, I have lost my taprooms pro database document in its entirety. I have valuable information stored in the document. Could you please let me know how to recover it. Office Document is available as empty in the backups section, where as it used to be 8 GB. Please help me to recover the document.

TapForms Pro, My document name is “Office”. Today when I restarted my system, it just disappeared.
under users/sp***/Library/containers/TapFormsPro/Data/Documents/Backups it is showing 885 kb. I am really concerned to loos such a big information. Please help me as my work function is impaired.
When you made backups from the app, did you configure a different backup location? Did you store your documents in the default location or did you put it into a custom location like Documents?
Maybe try to find the document called Office.tfpro. In the terminal app, execute find ~ -iname "office.tfpro". Or for backup files find ~ -iname "office*.tfpbak".
Another option would be to restore the file from you computer backup, if you (hopefully) have one.
Cheers, Daniel

I’m sorry this issue happened. Daniel’s suggestion is a good one. See if you can find any file with a .tfpro file extension on your drive. It may be there somewhere.
Did you also check the Open Recents menu to see if it shows up there?
Thanks,
Brendan
