LR4.4 (improved) by LR5.6 and now both converted catalog show empty when opened

Fisrt of all Hello everyone!

Now to my problem... I used LR 4.4 until recently when I installed LR 5.6 demo. I opened the create catalog 4.4 with the 5.6, it asked me to update (which I did) and ended up with two catalogues (no problem up to this point).

I was working with the new catalogue updated with no problems. He was saved and opened a couple of times.

Then yesterday, I open the catalog (from recent) and it is empty. No photos, no previews, no inches, nothing; that the message to import photos. All my missing work!

The newly created catalog appear in Explorer as 1,3 MB, which I assume is the size of a vacuum of catalogue - it must not be empty, since I worked on it if something clearly went wrong here... BUT the former create catalog 4.4 is shown 13.5 MB which is more or less the correct size of a non-empty catalog.

-TWO catalogues are now EMPTY when opened. And no backup was performed.

My questions are...

-what the hell happened?

-is it possible to get the open catalogue of 13.5 MB?

and the most important and the most unlikely...

-is it possible to get back to work?

Using win7

Thank you in advance, K

In Lightroom, select the file-> open the recent item and see if one of these catalogs contains your photos.

You probably accidentally created a new catalog.
