Some of my accounts have been deleted during an update. What happened?

Doug Mundrick

I updated today like I do every day and I noticed that several of my accounts are gone...and they are not "hidden" either. It appears as though Lowe's, Tractor Supply, a Visa account, Goody's, and Kohl's are all gone! I did a super validation and it appears as though all the transactions are still there. However, it now shows [Unspecified Account] in the category field in my register. How do I get my accounts back? And Why did this happen?
