IDA 4.7-> Buggy?

I´ve just got IDA 4.7 standart and I discovered a bug (??)!
I dissambled a file, made some comments etc., saved the database and reopened it. Now it happend... All strings (in the strings-window of course)are gone! I tried it with a few other progs, but all the same! Is a bug or only my stupidity? In version 4.5 i dont have this problem.
Any ideas?

In menu: Windows | Reset hidden messages

Thanks, I will give it a try!

Sorry, but <reset hidden messages> does exactly what it do, but this doesnt
help me or my strings.
I did some other tests:
I started the debugger ->All strings are gone
I pressed <reset desktop> -> ditto
I tried it on Windows98 ->guess what...exactly the same!

In IDA 4.5 a small message with "generating list of strings" appeared when
I did one of this above, but not so in IDA 4.7!
I think here are quite many IDA 4.7 users so can anybody tell me if he has
the same problem or did I simply get a corrupted IDA version??

Try to close "Strings" view, and then open it again (View-Open subviews-Strings). Don't know why, but it helps in my case.

You don't need to close "String" view every time. Just press SHIFT+F12 to refresh it.
