    I just opened the stamps and all I saw was "Rescan".

    You do realize I cannot help if that's all you can give me.

    Basically the solution is that you need to find your stamps. I'm certain they are somewhere on your computer. Open the 32 bit instance of TPT and they should be there.

    Replacing Powder.exe (32 bit) with Powder.exe (64 bit) will not affect your stamps. This is all you should have done when downloading the new version of TPT.

    Once you find them I have some other advice, but taking it one step at a time for now.

    I can't find my stamps.

    Guess I've lost my stamps.

    Stamps don't delete themselves, you just aren't searching hard enough for your original TPT installation.

    If you still want help, I'd need a few more questions answered (like how you used to launch TPT).

    Combustion type in your search bar %appdata% windows search bar and then you will see the powder toy open that you might find your stamps

    Pretty sure the old stamps were on an instance of tpt using a local data directory, and the new install he has is using the appdata folder. So searching for %appdata%\The Powder Toy will only get him to his empty stamp folder.

    A good reason to use the "Migrate to shared data directory" option in settings to make sure all your stamps are in one common place.

    I think you are right jacob a fix to that problem would be spliting the folders with diffrent names for example tpt 32x folder would be named the powder toy 32 and the 64 the same idea so you can easily migrate between files and copy the stamps into the other one

    No, actually the answer is to make them both use the shared folder. That is what "Migrate to shared data directory" does. One folder for all TPT instances means you won't lose track of your stamps if you have them in some random folder on your desktop or downloads folder (or worse, if you run TPT directly from a zip file)

    I have my stamps and data synced between a large number of TPT instances and mods, and never have to copy things between them now.

    in my experience, your stamp files might not be in the stamp folder, or is in the stamp folder for an older version.
