SDL Trados 2015 resetting itself up

Hi, I had an extremely unpleasant surprise this morning when I came to open my SDL to start working. When I double-clicked on the icon, SDL opened up as a setting up wizard, as if it was the first time that I was using it (I have had it for months). It wiped out all my projects, some of which I had saved, some others I hadn't yet, because i was still working on them a few hours before!

Has anybody else had a similar experience and do you know if there is a way to revert this disaster?

Thanks

    Ok, I will try what you suggest. BUT are my projects files in Documents still going to be safe, even if I get to the point of reinstalling Studio as a whole?

    Yes because uninstalling and reinstalling does not touch your project files at all, You will still find all your files in "Documents". 
    On the other hand, I would personally recommend to store your projects in a user-controlled folder, ideally on a different partition, instead of relying on the default "Document" folder.
