Pilot career got corrupted - repair and/or backup?

[jetsimace]

One of my pilot's career got corrupted. I am not able to load this specific career, the spinning wheel / hourglass rotates forever and I need to end Il-2.exe via taskmanager.

I've spent a lot of missions and time fostering this career, so is there a way to rectify the corrupted database?
I already had such issues in the past, at this time the only way forward had been to delete the respective career.

 

I am also thinking about making regular backups. Would it be sufficient to backup all files underneath <Driveletter>:\IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\data\Career ?

 

Many thanks!

Thanks No.322. Basically I was able to 'resurrect'  the career but got some strange behaviour proceeding further.
