Last night all was fine. All my info was on persistence. Booted up today, entered my password and now none of my info is there. What happened? Has this happened to anyone else?
Tails persistence randomly gone?

Happened to me too a while back. The usb drive just corrupted and lost it's memory, happens all the time. I mean these are $10 usb sticks we are talking about. Now you know to back it up.

Back it up next time!

Also, I've learned this issue is commonly presented when you unplug USB without shutting down Tails first

You can still access your persistence by going into Other Locations in the file manager. Then go to the hard drive and go to /live/Persistence/TailsData_unlocked. It's all there. Back that up before doing anything.
The easiest way to make it appear back as normal is to just do the configure persistence option again. Select all the things you had selected before, and make sure you back things up using the method above before you do anything.

Either reconfigure your persistent volume, or if that doesn't work, boot up a separate tails stick and use the Disk utility to copy your files over.

It’s easy fix. Just reset your persistence settings
