Help! Where did my project go?

I clicked on something in More Tasks on the project window and now my own project has disappeared from the menu. How can I get it back? The window only shows the sample project now.
The menu won't stay put for me to get a snip showing the submenu. I clicked on More Tasks/ Project List/Reset Location to Installation Default.

Family Historian has done as you asked and reset the location.
I suspect you have previously moved your Project to a location within your Dropbox or cloud folder.
To find the Project open Windows File Explorer and search for *.fh_Proj
This will show the folder your Project is in.
Click on the Blue Link in the Project Window to set it to the folder above the one your project file is in.
e.g
If you project file is in documents/dropbox/family Historian projects/my project/my project.fh_proj
set the location to documents/dropbox/family Historian projects/

I hadn't moved anything, but DH saves everything to a separate storage box for security (he's an ex IT manager)!
With his help, my projects are showing again. Phew!
Thank you so much for helping this techno twit.
