Well, now I feel dumb. Control+/ is the built-in backup ability of SCID. I did not know/realize this existed. I definitely would have used it! And I am using it now! One question, are my comments and notations stored in the ".sn4" file? And the pgn (including the original game and the variations) stored in the ".sg4" file?

But at least I've got my tree window back! Lesson learned (yet again, ha!) I'll check out (Control+/). This is a great program, and it is truly awesome that you are around to answer questions! Cheers! michael
