Hi, I had 70 PS POS systems in the field and I saved the list of items and other info after each addition it worked 99.9% of the time. But when it failed (4 or 5 times a year) usually the same customer (same hardware same windows 7 )I had to log in and copy a blank livecode stack. In the end I had to save the info in the Sqlite database - No problems since.
The stackfile never seemed to damage because of a power failure/outage or anything - but had a greater chance if that was the case. The funny thing was if you did switch the power off off without doing a proper shutdown there was no damage 99.9% of the time. Never did get to the bottom of it.
