The recent update on 6/10/24 caused files to be saved and loaded from a different folder (Alpha_and_Iota_Version_6 instead of Alpha_and_Iota_Version_5 within local app data). If you had save and option files from the previous build, they should still exist, but will need to be manually moved to the new folder. To recover your progress, you can simply replace the save and options files in the folder Alpha_and_Iota_Version_6 with your existing save and options files from Alpha_and_Iota_Version_5. These folders should be in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local As a shortcut, you can just type %localappdata% into the search bar. This should take you right to where the relevant folders are. Apologies for the inconvenience. For future updates I will make sure that save data is transferred over automatically.
