All my custom courses have uninstalled from the game. I then opened TW Caddy and all the custom courses and libraries have disappeared. Custom courses and Libraries are still there on my C drive where they should be. Everything was fine a week ago and haven't opened Tw till now.

Has anybody got a solution apart from having to reinstall alll my libraries and nearly 90 courses?

I'm a bit reluctant to restore as I had a similar problem when all my libraries disappeared from my hard drive a few months ago and restore didn't help so it looks like i'm in for a long day reinstalling them all.

I would maybe take some time to try and figure out what happened for the things to be missing. They cannot just uninstall on their own. Did any software change, new hardware, etc. No didn't list any pc specifications, operating system, etc. All of that sort of information is necessary to try and offer some assistance.

System Windows Vista Home premium 32bit
Intel core duo E8500
Nvidia Geforce 9500GT
4GIG ram

The only thing I did on my computer since last playing TW was install WSCreal09 and Film-on HDI player. My son installed a game called Audio-Surf ( torrent download) which was scanned as clean. Not used a cleaner since I last played.

The only thing I can tell you is that in the past a couple of times when I've put TW in the drive and opened the game from the pop-up screen it hasn't recognised my customs. If I close the game and start from the desktop icon theres never been a problem. I've only ever used the desktop shortcut for months now.

The problem is fixed. My son had turned off UAC. Turned it back on and there they are. Where can I get a huge sign that says "Stay off the bloody computer"?

He's not a kid he's 23 years old and thinks he knows it all. Sadly he doesn't as I have informed him.

But if you change it at all after installing courses it will cause issues as it changes permissions on the file system and on the registry.

As I found out! I actually saw him turn it off. His words were" you dont need this on it's a pain in the arse".

My advice to anyone "If its on leave it on!"
