I was on 2.x.x when it prompted me to restart hyper as 3.0.0 was ready.
Once i did, it wiped my .hyperjs configuration.
Is there any way to get it back?

Looks like the new version is pointing to the settings file in %APPDATA%\Hyper.hyper.js instead of the old one %USERPROFILE%.hyper.js.

Just grab your old file from the old location and paste it into the new location to get all your settings back.

Same here 馃槥 . Unfortunately, it seems to be gone.
It could be restored if you have backup.

Fortunately I'm on WSL, so I could go into Preferences and change the shell to my bash shell, and copy the contents of my WSL config and paste it over.

Basically the same issue, but it didn't wipe the configuration for me, it's just not using it. My .hyper.js is safe in my home directory.

Weirdly enough, if I execute hyper in hyper, it opens up a window with my configuration loaded.

I copy pasted the config from this window into the config of the original window, closed, re-opened and was good to go.

Is it loading the previous version? I noticed that the CLI tool uses the old config rather than the new one.

Yes, the CLI tool is opening up the previous version from what I can tell.
