Hahahaha... that's hilarious. Anyways, it might be a while until I return to heavy development again. I just reinstalled Windows 7 (since Windows 8 is a nightmare), and I have to install of my development tools again. Also, Windows 8 didn't copy my flat-file database at all. Got to love Windows 8... Luckily, I have backups, so it should be easy to reconstruct. Cyah all in a few days.
Windows 8 rocks when used correctly, its an upgrade from 7 in all possible ways, just saying
Oh, yah. It's great, until it horribly ruins everything. Windows 8 decided to only copy the directories of my World Server project when backing it up, then decided to tell me that it copied everything successfully (when it obviously did not). I'm back by two months now because of Windows 8. I'm never going to update from Windows 7, ever. Microsoft has permanently lost me as a Windows 8 developer.
Thank *** I have the most recent binary file for the project from this morning's dropbox binary backup. Having a build event that copied the executable saved the project. I'll be reversing it and adding the documentation back in over the next few weeks. Sorry for the long delay that's to come everyone.

You should always use a version control system (git, svn) to have external backup in the cloud....

Yeah. I've definitely learned my lesson, though the OS shouldn't do things like that. And OS's copy command should copy things. I'm going to get into using svn.

Lol, ok well windows has a very poor track record with backup systems, you shouldn't be using the built in back in any version of windows, never mind a brand new version of backup in an OS which is only 2 weeks old, and let's face it, chances are you miss-configured the backup in the first place which wouldn't surprise me.

I wasn't. I used Windows 8's copy function, like for copying files. Ctrl+c, then Ctrl-v. I didn't even think that could ever fail without throwing an error. But yah, backups - good stuff...
I wouldnt call that a backup lol.... any number of reasons why that wouldn't work on any version of windows made in the last 15 years x.x
I've never had that happen before. I'm not going to say it was an appropriate backup method, but a normal copy and paste shouldn't have that issue in an operating system. It really doesn't matter what happened at this point, though. My project is a mess, and I need to spend time cleaning it up now.
I doubt it has anything to do with the OS to be perfectly honest, Microsoft are not some amateur organisation that would release such an important product with something so fundamental such as copying files being buggy. Its much more likely to be a dying hard drive or a memory fault.
Blaming a major corporation for your lack of a proper backup is just immaturity to be honest bud, I would reconsider your position on it if I were you.
