First and foremost, I want to make it clear I'm not trying to blame the app. To a large extent, this is my fault. But...
Turns out if you set the temp directory to let's say Desktop, or god forbid, the D drive, and then clear the temp files for a video conversion in Hybrid, well, the entire directory will be recursively deleted. Don't ask why, but I had set the temp directory to my external disk D, and now it is completely erased. Thankfully I have backups, but if I didn't, this would not be very fun. Could you maybe rework this feature to make it safer? Hopefully nobody else does what I did, but even if it happens to one more person, this can have devastating consequences.
Thanks a lot!
