   Hello All!   
      
   I have posted this in the echo some time back, but now it is getting    
   dangerous.   
      
   Using file group control in mbsetup via 10.1 I now have multiple copies of   
   MAINFRAME area - see screen shot. Only a few minutes earlier I had four copies   
   of group LNX4 which I was trying to delete and finally did it only for 2    
   copies   
   of area MAINFRAME.   
      
   mbsetup is now totally messing up one or more (mbse) data files for which    
   there   
   is no recovery.   
      
   This started (again) when I decided to clean up my File Groups removing the   
   dead groups as per FILEGATE.ZXX and inactive.txt   
      
   So having had to go through each downlink and remove all from the various    
   areas   
   such as APPLEMAC, BBSSCENE, BFDS, BBBS, PASCAL FDN, SFDS, SDS, STN, TABLETS,   
   TAURUS, W32BINKD, WINS FDN, LNX4, HAM, GED WIN FDN and ODDBALL. Then going   
   through removing the group areas, I ending up with four copies of LNX4.   
      
   Then removing those (and yes I suspected the LNX4 name overwrote the original   
   group names) and exited mbsetup, followed by reloading it I found two copies    
   of   
   MAINFRAME.   
      
   I posted a screen grab of this display when posting the bug report.   
      
   This is NOT the first time I have had this issue but also with 1.0.7.24 and   
   possibly an earlier version - just cannot remember what one.   
      
   This issue on v1.0.8 on Linux Mageia v8 X64.   
   I have no idea what other areas it has over written with all this and exiting   
   mbsetup and reloading does not help.   
      
   Has there been some coding changes to the file group table and file processing   
   from 1.0.7.22 onwards ?   
      
   I can not risk any more attempts of removing or even adding a new file   
   groups to the system and will avoid even adding new file areas on a JIC basis.   
      
   File group set up's is as sick as a parrot - - .
