Issue/Introduction

I deleted my .metadata file and now SB doesn't work, what do I do?

Resolution

The steps involve creating a new workspace and importing your work into the new workspace.

1) Exit StreamBase Studio

2) Rename the old StreamBase Workspace and StreamBase Configuration directories -- don't delete them.

3) Start SB Studio -- it will create a new, clean workspace and config.

4) Create new projects in the new workspace.

5) Re-Import each file from the old Workspace (use menu: File > Import > Resources from the Filesystem), working through the old workspace project by project. 

Note that it is better to import projects which do not have dependencies to other projects first, followed by the projects which depend on them.
