Updated to Transmission 4.0.3 from 3.xx, Lost most transfers

I updated recently on my Mac to receive M1 support, but now all my transfers past July 2021 are gone. Very frustrating. Any way to get them back?

Quit Transmission. Restore the folder "~/Library/Application\ Support/Transmission/Torrents" from backup. re-Launch Transmission.

Sure they're gone? They're not listed under Error or Paused? T4 should not be losing track of torrents, regardless of age.

Nevermind, it seems in a state of frustration I didn't see that some of the torrents were there, but just not in the right order. After restarting and losing my torrents positioning, I found out that I had to resort them by date added (duh) in the top bar, and it seems my problem has been solved! Just odd it didn't keep my old sort settings, but at least it's fixed now. Thanks for trying to help.
