That seems to be the KMyMoney application, so the program seems to be still present.

Here's what you can do:

- cancel the 'start-from-scratch' process.
- Check the 'File/Open recent' list
- It shows the files you recently used
- In case it is not in there, try to search the file using Windows Explorer. Look for '*.kmy' (without the quotes)
- If you find it, use 'File/Open...' to open it

Not sure what happened. In case you cannot find your data you should have a backup on a different medium.
