I also found a repeatable crash in a project I set up to look at this, though it seems to require selecting over the clips (as described above) then sync-lock dragging a clip into another track before dragging all the clips to zero. If you see a similar crash again and the steps are different, plea...

I'm glad you got your music back, but your description now sounds as if Audacity just closed without warning when you did something on the keyboard. Definitely you you ...

The "Libsndfile says" issue is due to unusual order of the metadata in an imported file. It is already fixed in the current 2.0.1 version, so if you upgrade ( http://audacityteam.org/download/windows ) the problem should not occur again. To fix the problem now, choose File > Open Metadata ...
