If a file is not appearing in the file browser provided by µVault, then it cannot be recovered.

Just let me know how you added the file so that we can see what went wrong.

Bear in mind that this program is open source and still in the beta stage, so there may be some bugs, especially if you are using this in an environment for which it was not intended. Running this on Windows before XP or using WINE on Mac or Linux may have unknown results.

I am updating this by completely rewriting the archiving library so as to create an encrypted virtual filesystem instead of a selectively corrupted archive. I am the only one working on this so it will still take quite some time to complete, but the changes will provide a much faster and more stable system.
