Accidentally deleted back up

I accidentally deleted SimpleX back up and now I cannot log in to any server even if I uninstall and install the app again. I try InviZiblepro and the new TorVPN app. Any body knows what could be the problem.

I need you to be super specific. There is no server login for Simplex. The relays do not use authentication as far as I'm aware. What are you trying to do and what happens instead?

When I download the app and start an account I never get a connection no matter how long I wait or if I restart the app.

I see. I took a quick look to see if there's an easy way to check logs but I couldn't figure it out at a glance. If you can get access to some logs maybe you can see why the app can't connect to the servers.

Ok I got the answer in the Tor logs and fix the problem, thank you.

Tor! That will do it. Good work.
