This is a relatively normal form of WarpCenter corruption. You should be
backing up \os2\dll\dock*.cfg and \os2\dll\scenter.cfg as part of your
normal Desktop backups. A Desktop restore will get them back.

Just because they looked empty to you, doesn't mean they where. Now you
know this. :-) A Desktop restore will get them back. Then you can
experiment to find out which are really unused. Some of them probably
are.

>I have a backup tape. What should I look for?

A Desktop restore is better, but without that, restore the Nowhere
directories and the files listed above.
