Visual Studio 2010 data connections missing

I opened vs2010 this morning and all my data connections (in server explorer) were missing. I had a quite a list so this is a real pain. They're solution/project independent so I'm not sure why they'd just clear. Any ideas? I shut VS down properly last night too.

The same thing happened to me today too. I wasn't able to figure out what caused that, so I simply restored the DefaultView.SEView file from the last disk backup and all my connections came back.. phew. That file is stored in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\ServerExplorer, so you might want to periodically backup it just in case. Hope this helps somehow.
