Stamps palette pressing delete no warning or undo
I just ran into something painful: If you accidentally click on "Delete" for a stamp while in the stamp palette, it does not show a warning, and immediately deletes the stamp, saves the stamp file, and there's no "undo". Because it's already written the change to the stamp file, you can't even go to the stamp folder and try to rescue it before the application is closed.

Hi Mathew,
In PDF-XChange Editor you have check-boxes to avoid warnings for the next times you are using specific functions like delete.
Probably you once marked the concerning check-box while deleting a stamp.
° °
To get the warning back, you must go into File > Preferences > General > Manage > Manage Prompts and re-mark the warning(s) that you turned off.
° °
Does that help ?
Kind regards.
