Timeslips 12 Error Code 204, Error Code 2 & Error Code 128

I am unable to access Timeslips at all.  

This started yesterday after updating/rebooting our server.  When I attempted to open Timeslips I got

Area: Streams

Error Code: 204 

Class: tHdrFileStreamExceptionC

I left it for a project for today.

When I attempted to log on this morning I got:

Area: Table

Error Code: 128

Class: tBDETableExceptionC

Table: General Setting (1)

then got offer to run data verification, when I tried that I got:

Area: Streams

Error Code: 204

Class: THdrFileStreamExceptionC

Looked at forum and found a post from 2011 about changing the names of Lcnsreg.dat, locks.db and login.db within the database folder, applying service pack for 2012 and then retry to enter Timeslips.  

When I tried to open Timelips, it performed the updates on my station (I am system administrator too and I have replicated this on another station),

The following errors occurred:

Area: Table

Error Code: 128

Class tBDETableExceptionC

Table: General Setting (1)

The offer of data verification which resulted in:

Area: System Error

Error Code: 2

Class: tSystemExceptoinC (EAccess Violation)

I am in need of help, I apparently last backed up a month ago (bad me).  I would like to try to fix rather than lose all that time.

    You are going to need to hire someone for some data repair.  Since your version 2012 is unsupported by Sage Timeslips, you can hire any Certified Consultant who does data repair.   Most of us can work remotely, but if you have a Certified Consultant that you already work with, you could give them a ring.

    If you provide your geographic location, I'd be happy to refer a local consultant to you if one is available.

    Hope this helps.

    Just a word of caution to those who may find this thread later.  This turned out to be a case where the database had been hit by a variant of the CryptoLocker virus.  Client will have to go to their Monday night tape backup.  This makes twice that I've seen it hit firms in the last 30days.

    Please folks, make sure you backup your Timeslips often, and move them off of the machine where the database is hosted.

    Hope this helps.
