## The problem
**Describe precisely the problem you're facing and add screenshots to illustrate**
Writing a new note with the cloud app. Wanting to assign it to a known category. Realizing that the category I'm looking for does not exist. Doing some more analysis and realizing that out of 20 categories, only 3 exist still, and that the notes from the 17 deleted categories have been assigned to one of the 3 remaining categories.
This is quite critical. It seems no notes have been deleted, which is the most important thing, but: Almost 700 notes, carefully curated to different categories have just been tossed in one category/folder. I have a disk backup that is 6 days old and now try to reconstruct the old state.
**Steps to reproduce**
None. It seems to have happened by itself randomly.
I was asking myself: Did I perhaps erroneously delete folders? But if that was the case, then this would not explain why the contents of the folders were not deleted, but moved to another folder instead. This really seems more like a weird bug to me.
