You will (probably) recognize the notes several lines below it.
If your notes are still in the file, I would have no idea why they aren't showing up. I think somewhere in Carbonites options they can be enabled/disabled, so they possibly got accidentally disabled.
As far as I know, if your notes are no longer in that file, unless you have a recent backup of it there is no way to recover them. If you do, indeed, have a recent backup, it may be possible to copy the notes out of it, and paste them in the current file at the proper location.

Hi, Jeffy162. I'm trying to do what you suggested, above. And, that is to
"copy the notes out of it, and paste them in the current file at the proper location."
I need further guidance and maybe a 'visual' explanation to help me understand precisely where to paste my copies from previous backups (of my NXfav code/s). You said to paste them at the "
proper location," but I don't know where that is. LUA coding is difficult for me to understand with all the brackets, ellipses, dots, squiggly's, etc.! ha ha. Therefore, I do not want to mess up my current Carbonite.lua, even though I have a backup of it.
I want to learn how to do it.
I also noticed that in my previous backups, there are several different NXfav sections (within the same NXfav section) and each one of them does pertain to my saved "NOTES" which I placed onto maps earlier. Am I to copy each section (
if I can figure out where each section starts/ends) into the newest NXfav section? Or, am I to copy and paste sections of earlier ones "inside" the newest NXfav area? Confused. Your help will be appreciated.
