    Go to WTF/Accounts/xxxxx/Saved Variables
    See if WeakAuras.lua.bak is old enough and much larger than .lua file.
    If so:
    Copy that to another folder - log off - replace weakauras.lua with backup file
    If not:
    You are in trouble.

    I had this happen a few weeks ago.. I have a huge amount of WA groups.. it would have ruined so much to me..

    So I panicked started looking for old versions of WTF folder, to replace with.. after lots of stupid ideas, and getting some bad partial implementations of what I had.. I tryed to copy the original WTF folder back, the one where all my WA seemed to be missing from..

    Well.. that kinda worked.. I have no idea what, but from then on, I've been backing up my WA... every time I make a change
