# Corrupted CSV

 * I have a form which has been successfully exporting CSV files for 2 weeks. Today
   the file had several lines in both existing and new data mixed up. Fortunately
   I had the previous CSV files and there was limited new data. I’ve made a duplicate
   of the form, so it will be a fresh CSV from this point. But why would this corruption
   happen?

 * I have been on to WPMU DEV support and it seems this is a known issue with the
   latest 1.19 version (both Pro and Free). Going back to free version 1.18.1 will
   get around the problem. You can download older versions from the bottom of this

 * Hi [@jscn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jscn/)
 * Sorry to hear you are having this issue.
 * This is not expected, we save the data in the database and use unique IDs to 
   split the form entries, there was an issue in the past where Forminator was not
   exporting the data but it was ending up in an empty CSV, can you please try to
   export your data again then Re-select “Form” in the first column, then reselect
   the Form [https://monosnap.com/file/EUg9cP0pndi0hup3vuw2lYy9kB9UFq](https://monosnap.com/file/EUg9cP0pndi0hup3vuw2lYy9kB9UFq)

 * Hi [@jscn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jscn/)
 * I hope you are doing well.
 * An update on my previous reply, I did some troubleshooting and found this reported
   issue indeed, we already reported it to our developer, and I hope we can fix 
   this as soon as possible.
 * We can’t give an estimated time but you can follow the plugin roadmap at [https://wpmudev.com/roadmap/#forminator](https://wpmudev.com/roadmap/#forminator)

 * Hi Patrick,
    Thanks for your update. As mentioned, winding back to free version
   1.18.1 is a work around. However going back to Pro version 1.18.2 still has the
   problem. There doesn’t seem to be a link to download the Pro 1.18.1 version, 
   how can I get hold of it?
