I fired up DS (4.8) recently to find that all of the custom actions I'd placed into my Scripts menu had disappeared. The menu commands I'd moved from various menus into the Scripts menu (Transfer Utility, convert prop to figure, etc.) are all still there. I've saved my layouts through the last several years, and when I checked my Users/AppData/etc directory for DS, it looked like everything was still there (though I did delete a bunch of them recently, old ones I hadn't used in a long time, which has me wondering if that might've caused it).
From what I can gather, blabla/Roaming/Daz 3d/Studio4/user layouts/menus/[name of layout here] seems to be the file I want, but when I open it in my text editor, I get incredibly useful entries like "<CustomAction Name="ead14a83-3787-42b4-86b1-3ff70ff401d5"/> in the places where I was expecting English (consistent with what I said previously, they are near entries like <Action Class="DzJEConvertPropToFigureAction"/> that refer to commands that are still showing up fine in the Scripts menu). All custom actions seem to use this hash file (or whatever) format; I checked several other layout/menus files and saw more of the same.
Is there any way to track down and reconstruct my old custom actions? I'm currently doing it the old fashioned way by creating a new custom action every time I use something I remember being in my Scripts menu. And by first copying the item to a single directory where I now store all my to-be-custom-actioned items against the next time this problem occurs. But it would be nice to have a list so I could do it all in one go.
P.S., I know 4.9 is the current version. Last time I installed it, some rather nasty bugs forced me to revert to 4.8. That was a while ago, so I have the latest stable and beta versions of 4.9 in my to-do queue.
