CNC Bender Configuration File Restoration

If the CNC Bender system is shutdown immediately through power loss it is possible that the configuration file will be lost and needs to be rebuilt from a backup file.

"How Will I Know That the Configuration Needs to Be Restored?"

For earlier versions, the clue that the configuration needs restoration is that your system experienced sudden power loss, then, after restarting the system, CNC Bender no longer appears to load CNC Processor. In this case, CNC Bender will not announce "CNC Bender System Initialized" as it normally does. The CNC Processor menu will show an empty log. And you will not be able to start the bender. If all of this occurs, then your configuration file probably needs to be restored.
